CHELAN NATIONAL FOREST: G 4282 .C514 (year)
Note: The Chelan National Forest was created on July 1, 1908 and included forest lands from the crest of the Cascade Range eastward to the Okanogan and Columbia Rivers and from the Canadian boundary in the north to the southern Entiat river drainage divide. On July 1, 1911, the entire northern portion of the Chelan National Forest from the northern Lake Chelan drainage divide to the Canadian border was deleted in order to form the Okanogan National Forest. From 1911 to 1921, the Chelan National Forest included only the Lake Chelan and the Entiat River drainages. In 1921, the Okanogan National Forest was reunited with the Chelan National Forest and the name, Okanogan, discontinued. The Chelan National Forest existed until 1955 when the name of the entire forest changed once again to the Okanogan National Forest. The western portion of the Colville National Forest was transferred to the Chelan National Forest in 1943.
