1998 Map of Wahpenayo Peak

USGS Topo · Published 2003

About this map

Wahpenayo Peak and the Tatoosh Range define this high-altitude landscape where Mt Rainier National Park meets the Gifford Pinchot National Forest. The northern reach of the survey is anchored by the Nisqually River and the facilities at Longmire Campground, including water tanks and a sewage disposal plant serving the park infrastructure. The terrain is marked by steep ridges and glacial drainages, including Kautz Creek and Horse Creek. To the south, the Tatoosh Wilderness protects the remote Johnson Lake and its surrounding peaks. Industrial activity is visible on the national forest lands in the form of multiple quarries, contrasting with the preserved wilderness nearby. Significant transit points like Silver Creek Pass and the course of Skate Creek reveal the natural corridors used to navigate this complex mountain geography.
