Interactive Forest Visitor Map

Use the Interactive Forest Visitor Map to locate roads, campgrounds, trailsInteractive and other recreation sites on the forest.  You can zoom way in for high resolution detail and also change the background map. Print your map or save as a Geo PDF map (under "Tools" icon) and you can import it to your phone or tablet in a program like Avenza to locate yourself on the map (even without a cell signal since it uses the satellite positioning in your device). You can also find other national forests across the country on the map.

See interactive Wildfire Area Closures Map for current information on area and trail closures on Okanogan-Wenatchee National Forest. You can zoom way in on map for details.
