1970 Map of Walupt Lake

About this map

Walupt Lake sits at the center of this high-elevation landscape, serving as a hub for the various pack trails and seasonal encampments that defined the area in the early 1970s. The region is marked by the presence of the Walupt Lake Guard Station and several specialized sites like Horse Camp and Short Trail Camp, reflecting a managed wilderness accessible primarily by foot or animal. To the north, the terrain rises sharply toward the Goat Rocks, where permanent ice features including Conrad Glacier and Meade Glacier flank Gilbert Peak. This survey provides a precise look at the jurisdictional boundaries of the Gifford Pinchot National Forest and the Yakima Indian Reservation Boundary, documenting the network of paths like the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail and Nannie Ridge Trail before later 20th-century shifts in forest management.
