About this map

Tyee Mtn and the long spine of Tyee Ridge dominate this interior section of the Wenatchee National Forest. The landscape is defined by the sharp descent of numerous seasonal and perennial creeks, including Dill Cr, Stormy Cr, and Potato Cr, which feed the prominent Entiat River as it flows south through the eastern half of the quadrangle. To the southwest, the Lower Mad River carves a deep path beneath Hornet Ridge and Gold Ridge.

Tracing the high ground reveals a series of critical water sources, specifically the numbered spring system along the ridge. Features like Tyee Ridge Spring Number 1 and Tyee Ridge Spring Number 8 indicate the importance of these isolated water points for forest management and local ecology. The map also captures several significant landforms, from McKenzie Saddle to the branching drainages of North Fork Gray Canyon and South Fork Grays Canyon, showing the complex vertical relief of the Chelan County wilderness.
