1985 Map of Wellington Peak

About this map

The rugged Huckleberry Range and The Summit Range define this high-elevation corner of Stevens County, where 1980s surveyors documented a landscape shaped by mining and rural persistence. Resource extraction is evident in the numerous sites scattered across the peaks, from the Tempest Mine in the north to the Columbia Tungsten Mine near Wellington Peak. These industrial markers sit alongside signs of early 20th-century settlement, including the Waterloo School and small community points like Magee and Maud. The presence of a Cem and isolated features like a Corral and Storage Bin suggest the area's history as a working landscape of small-scale ranching and mineral prospecting. Steep drainages like Courtright Canyon and Stranger Creek separate the many named summits, including Old Baldy and Buttercup Hill.
