About this map

The Entiat Mountains dominate the landscape of this 1980s Chelan County study, where narrow canyons and steep ridges define the regional topography. Much of the area is protected as part of the Wenatchee National Forest, reflecting a land use pattern centered on timber and natural resource management. The Chumstick Railroad follows the winding path of Chumstick Creek, providing a critical transportation link through the rugged interior. Local industrial activity is evidenced by a Quarry and a Borrow Pit, while numerous named drainage systems like Walker Canyon, Clark Canyon, and Bjork Canyon carve into the high country. Above the valleys, Medicine Ridge and the Entiat Mountains overlook the confluence of smaller tributaries such as Eagle Creek and East Van Creek, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Cascade foothills.
