2017 Map of Tyee Mountain

About this map

Tyee Mountain dominates this portion of the Wenatchee National Forest, where the landscape is defined by the significant hydrological divide between the Entiat River and the Mad River. The topographical complexity of the region is punctuated by a series of high-elevation water sources, specifically Tyee Ridge Spring Number 1 through Number 6, which suggest a localized reliance on these perennial points for forest management or livestock. Navigation through this steep terrain in the mid-2010s relied on a network of forest service arteries, including the Entiat River Rd and the Lower Mad River route. Named landmarks like McKenzie Saddle and Billy Ridge provide essential orientation points for those studying the drainage patterns and ridge-line geography of Chelan County.
