Silver Star Mountain (Skamania County, Washington)
Silver Star Mountain is a recently uplifted ridge of older Western Cascades volcanic rock, underlain by a granitic pluton of similar Western Cascades age, located in the Cascade Range in the U.S. state of Washington. Consisting of late Eocene to Oligocene epoch rock, it lies within the Gifford Pinchot National Forest. Silver Star is composed of three lithologic units (distinct units of rock, each with different physical characteristics), including the large Silver Star Granodiorite unit.

Silver Star Mountain (Okanogan County, Washington)
Silver Star Mountain is an mountain located in Okanogan County, Washington. The mountain is part of the Methow Mountains, a subset of the Cascade Range.

Silver Star Mountain stands within the watershed of the Methow River, which drains into the Columbia River's Lake Pateros reservoir, impounded by Wells Dam. The west and north sides of Silver Star drain into Early Winters Creek, thence into the Me ...
