2020 Map of Whitehorse Mountain

About this map

Mount Baker National Forest encompasses the entirety of this high-elevation quadrangle in Snohomish County, dominated by the peaks of the North Cascades. The map highlights the sharp profile of Whitehorse Mtn and the distinct summits of Three Fingers, where the Three Fingers - Saddle Lake area and Goat Flat offer specialized terrain for mountaineers. The drainage patterns are defined by the Boulder River and Squire Creek, which receive meltwater from high basins like Wellman Basin and Sill Basin. While road access is minimal, the presence of the Eight-Mile Creek Trail indicates the importance of backcountry recreation in this wilderness landscape. Notable high-altitude water bodies include Bullen Lake and Noble Lake, which sit below ridges such as Whitehorse Ridge and Boulder Ridge, illustrating the glacially carved character of the region.
