About this map

Aladdin Mountain and Green Mountain anchor this high-elevation landscape within the Colville National Forest as it appeared in the early 1990s. The region is defined by its industrial history and water resources, straddling the border of Stevens and Pend Oreille counties. Resource extraction is evident through the presence of the Aladdin Mine, Rocky Creek Mine, and Middleport Mine, which are tucked among the steep drainage basins of Rocky Creek and Meadow Creek.

A network of lakes and meadows defines the eastern and southern portions of the map, including Big Meadow Lake, Lake Thomas, and Lake Leo. The settlement of Aladdin serves as a lone point of reference in a terrain dominated by peaks like Seldom Seen Mountain and Thomas Mtn. The hydrology is complex, with the Little Pend Oreille River flowing near the Little Pend Oreille Heritage Lake, while a system of 4wd roads and trails provides the primary access through the dense timber and high ridges of the Tacoma Divide.
