1969 Map of Bossburg

USGS Topo · Published 1992

About this map

Bossburg sits along the eastern shore of Franklin D Roosevelt Lake in this late 1960s topographic study, illustrating a landscape shaped by both the Columbia River and the industrial extraction of its surrounding hills. The map highlights the intersection of recreation and industry, with the Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area and North Gorge Campground bordering significant local mining operations. To the south of the settlement, the Northwest Marble Mine and the Young America Mine are prominent, while several smaller quarries and prospects are scattered throughout the terrain. Moving west across the water, the landscape rises into the prominent Kelly Hill, contrasting with the high northern peaks of Jumbo Mountain. The presence of small named settlements like Myers and Arnold along the roads provides important data for genealogists tracing local families in Stevens County. Natural water features, including Buhring Lake and the clustered Glasgo Lakes, punctuate the high-elevation drainages that feed the river system.
