About this map

Spokane Indian Reservation lands dominate the northern landscape of this mid-1980s survey, defined by the winding course of the Spokane River as it flows into the expansive Franklin D Roosevelt Lake. The terrain is marked by significant topographical variation, from the heights of Cayuse Mountain to the deep incisions of Mill Canyon and Harker Canyon in the south. This area serves as a critical intersection of natural resources and protected lands, evidenced by the industrial footprint of the Sherwood Mine near the northern boundary and the inclusion of the Coulee Dam National Recreation Area along the shoreline. Small water bodies like Benjamin Lake and Carp Lake dot the uplands, while the isolated settlement of Devore sits near the eastern margin. The map illustrates the 1980s balance between resource extraction, indigenous land management, and federal recreation zones along the Columbia River drainage.
