About this map

The Okanogan National Forest covers much of this high-elevation terrain, characterized by a network of peaks including Tunk Mtn, Sneed Mtn, and Bannon Mtn. This landscape is defined by its series of springs and small lakes, such as Gooseberry Lake and Long Lake, which feed into Aeneas Creek and Patterson Creek. The presence of several named springs like Whitman Spr, McKee Spr, and Aeneas Spring suggests a reliance on these localized water sources for the cattle and wildlife in this high-altitude environment.

Administrative boundaries and access routes like Aeneas Valley Rd and Peoney Creek Rd indicate the area's ongoing management for forestry and grazing. Historical transit is etched into the topography through names like Stage Coach Trl and Lone Pine Trl, which connect the drainage basins across Jacks Pass. These trails and the scattered mountain peaks reveal the complex geography of north-central Washington's interior.
