About this map

The tiny settlement of Aladdin anchors this portion of the Colville National Forest during the early 1990s, where the drainages of Meadow Creek and Deep Creek converge. The landscape is defined by significant topographical features like Aladdin Mountain and the expansive Bon Ayre Ridge, which separates the northern creek systems from the Bon Ayre Valley to the south. Historically, the area was tied to mineral extraction and education, evidenced by the Morning Mine and the Bon Ayre School.

A network of forest roads, including Kolle Road, navigates the complex terrain of Easter Ridge and Blacktail Butte. The map illustrates the administrative division between Stevens and Pend Oreille counties, showing how remote settlement patterns followed the natural pathways carved by Mill Creek and Rabbit Creek. This document serves as a record of rural Washington’s mountain geography just before the turn of the millennium.
