About this map

The Kootenai River carves through this northern Idaho landscape, anchoring the city of Bonners Ferry and its surrounding agricultural benches. The river serves as a topographical divide, with the main settlement concentrated on the south bank while North Bench and Threemile Corner occupy the higher ground to the north. These upland areas are marked by a dense network of local roads such as Homestead Loop and Ponderosa Way, reflecting the region’s rural development.

South of the city, the landscape transitions into the wide, fertile expanse of Paradise Valley, where the Paradise Valley Cemetery and Grandview Cemetery provide valuable points of reference for genealogists. Transportation remains a central theme, evidenced by the Boundary County Airport and the tracks of the Union Pacific Railroad that parallel the river. The survey also captures smaller outlying locales like Allens Spur, Schnoors, and Moravia Cemetery, situated near the eastern edge of the Kaniksu National Forest.
