About this map

Colville Valley serves as a primary corridor for transportation and industry in this portion of Stevens County, following the path of the Great Northern railroad. The settlement of Arden is positioned near the junction of the Colville River and the Little Pend Oreille R, while Orin sits further north along the tracks. This mid-century survey captures an active extractive landscape, showing numerous quarries, a Sandpit, and the Ham Mine tucked into the hills. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation shifts, from the heights of Dunn Mountain down into Marble Valley and Swiss Valley. A network of water sources, including Stranger Creek and several mountain springs, feeds into the valley floor. Small recreation sites like the Cole Creek Picnic Area suggest the local utility of these wooded canyons during the 1960s and 1970s.
