2023 Map of Bangs Mountain

About this map

Franklin D Roosevelt Lake and the Columbia River define the eastern boundary of this Ferry County landscape, where the water meets the steep slopes of the Colville National Forest. The transition from the riverbank to the high peaks is marked by the Sherman Creek Game Range and numerous drainage systems like Roper Creek and Martin Creek. Local history is anchored by the Garden Valley Cem near the junction of Inchelium Kettle Falls Rd and Bangs Mountain Rd, while the northern reaches include the small settlement of Barney's Junction. The terrain rises sharply toward Bangs Mtn and Bald Hill, with the Sherman Pass Scenic Byway providing access through the rugged timberland. The shoreline of the Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area is dotted with landmarks like Rickey Point and Sherman Creek Point, illustrating the area's importance for both conservation and managed forestry.
