1969 Map of Twisp West

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Okanogan National Forest dominates this 1969 topographic study, capturing a landscape defined by deep canyons and industrial potential. High-elevation vantage points like the Lookout Tower atop Lookout Mtn overlook a complex drainage system including Poorman Creek and the southern reaches of the Twisp River. The map provides a detailed record of late-1960s resource exploration, highlighting the Alder Mine and various unnamed Mines and a Prospect scattered along the ridge lines and canyon walls. An intricate network of Pack Trails and Jeep Trails provides the primary access through this steep terrain, linking remote features like Elbow Canyon and Smith Canyon. This survey captures the region just before modern forest management practices evolved, showing the original National Forest Boundary and the proximity of these extractive sites to significant water sources like Libby Creek.
