About this map

The Coeur D'alene Indian Reservation dominates this Idaho landscape, characterized by high ridges and a complex network of drainage basins. The settlement of Benewah sits in the valley of Benewah Creek, while the southern portion of the quadrangle shows industrial or agricultural markers such as Elevators near the headwaters of Squaw Creek. This 1980s survey detail highlights the topography of the region, including notable summits like Moses Mountain and the distinctively named Squaw Hump. Movement through the terrain is marked by traditional crossings at Windfall Pass and Lolo Pass, connecting the watersheds of Moctileme Creek and Lolo Creek. The convergence of numerous streams, including Hangman Creek and North Fork Alder Creek, illustrates the high-elevation water systems essential to the reservation's geography and local land use at the time of the 1981 field check.
