About this map

Aladdin Mountain dominates this portion of the Selkirk Range during the late 1960s, a landscape defined by its mining history and high-elevation watersheds. Located along the border of Stevens and Pend Oreille counties, the area shows a distinct concentration of mineral exploration with sites like the Aladdin Mine, Lasota Mine, and Rocky Creek Mine situated among the drainage basins of Meadow Creek and Big Muddy Creek.

In the southern reaches, the Little Pend Oreille Lakes system provides a stark contrast to the timbered slopes. Lake Thomas, Heritage Lake, and Lake Leo are connected by the Little Pend Oreille River, with Princess Pine Camp indicating the region's recreational use. A network of primitive transit, including Mc Innis Road and various jeep trails, weaves through the peaks of Seldom Seen Mountain and Thomas Mtn, illustrating the era's reliance on rugged access for both industry and backcountry management.
