About this map

Aladdin Mtn and Seldom Seen Mtn anchor the high country within the Colville National Forest, where the boundary between Stevens and Pend Oreille counties cuts through the timbered landscape. The area is defined by a network of drainage basins and meadows, including the prominent Big Meadow Lake in the north and Lake Thomas to the south. Historically significant trails such as the Meadow Creek Trl and Thomas Mountain Trl suggest a long-standing pattern of access through this part of the Selkirk Mountains.

Water plays a central role in the topography, with the Little Pend Oreille River flowing through the southern portion of the quadrangle. High-altitude meadows like Stewart Meadow, Hills Meadow, and Hande Meadow break the dense forest cover, providing clearings that have likely served as landmarks for generations of foresters and outdoorsmen. The map reveals a transition from the rugged peaks of Thomas Mtn to the riparian corridors of Rocky Creek and Lost Creek.
