About this map

Franklin D Roosevelt Lake dominates the eastern and southern margins of this Stevens County landscape, where the waters of the Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area meet the rugged elevation of the Selkirk Mountains. The settlement of Bossburg sits along the shoreline, serving as a focal point near the southern bend of the reservoir. To the west, the Ferry and Stevens County line is marked by the course of the river, crossed by the Barstow Bridge.

The interior terrain is defined by significant peaks and drainages, including Jumbo Mtn in the north and Kelly Hill to the south. Small, isolated water bodies like Buhrig Lake, Perkins Lake, and Dilly Lake are scattered throughout the high country. A network of rural routes, such as Rettinger-Richart Rd and Northport Flatcreek Rd, connects these upland features to the river valley, illustrating the modern management of this timbered and recreational corridor.
