1964 Map of Calispell Peak

About this map

Calispell Peak and the high ridgelines of the Calispell Ridge anchor this mid-century survey along the boundary of Stevens and Pend Oreille counties. The landscape is defined by its administrative and natural divisions, where the Kaniksu National Forest meets the Colville National Forest. A network of high-altitude clearings, often bearing family names, suggests a history of grazing or seasonal use, including Lenhart Meadows, Pal Moore Meadow, and Hartill Meadows. The drainage patterns are complex, with the North Fork Chewelah Creek and Bear Creek carving through the terrain. Evidence of back-country access is visible via the Calispell Pk Rd and various unnamed tracks that navigate the slopes near Phillips Lake and the Little Pend Oreille Game Range.
