About this map

Walupt Lake and the high glaciated reaches of the Cascade Range define this landscape along the boundary of Lewis and Yakima counties. This high-altitude region is anchored by the Goat Rocks and the towering Gilbert Peak, which feeds the Conrad Glacier and Meade Glacier. The map documents the wilderness character of the Snoqualmie and Gifford Pinchot national forests, where the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail winds through alpine environments.

Evidence of the area's difficult geography is found at Cispus Pass and along the Klickton Divide. Water from these heights flows into the Cispus River and Klickitat River, while smaller mountain waters like Lake Corral and Gertrude Lake dot the basins. Open meadows such as Snowgrass Flat and the humorously named Coleman Weedpatch provide specific landmarks within the dense forest and rocky ridges.
