About this map

The confluence of the Methow River and Chewuch River anchors this 2011 survey of Winthrop, Washington. This mountain valley geography is defined by its water management and specialized aviation, featuring the North Cascades Smokejumper Base and Methow Valley State Airport located southeast of the town center. The landscape is dotted with numerous small lakes, including Patterson Lake, Big Twin Lake, and Moccasin Lake, many of which are regulated by structures like the Moccasin Lake Dam.

Cultural and industrial landmarks are well-represented, from the Sullivan Cemetery and Winthrop Post Office to the Winthrop National Fish Hatchery. The map documents local resource extraction at the Reward Sand and Gravel Quarry and Twin Lakes Quarry, alongside recreational sites like the Bear Creek Golf Course and Silverline Resort Recreational Vehicle Park. This edition provides a detailed look at the rural road network, including Twisp Winthrop Eastside Rd and Rendezvous Rd, as it winds through the foothills of Patterson Mountain and Harrier Hill.
