1968 Map of Winesap

About this map

The rugged terrain between the Columbia River and the southern tip of Lake Chelan dominates this 1968 survey, showcasing a landscape shaped by glacial coulees and modern infrastructure. The small settlement of Winesap is situated near the riverbanks, served by the Burlington Northern railroad and Stayman Road. High above the water, Navarre Coulee and Knapp Coulee provide natural corridors through the peaks of the Wenatchee National Forest. Extensive conservation lands, including the Entiat State Wildlife Area and Chelan Butte State Wildlife Area, preserve the character of the slopes. Along the lake shore, recreational development is evident at Wapato Point and Sunnybank, while Lake Chelan State Park marks the transition from the steep canyon walls to the water's edge.
