About this map

Old Mission State Park (Sacred Heart) stands as a focal point of this mid-1980s survey, marking a site of deep historical significance near the Coeur d'Alene River in Idaho. The settlement of Cataldo is situated along the river valley, flanked by the broad Mission Flats and the rising slopes of Cataldo Mtn. Further east, the community of Kingston serves as another primary landmark, nestled where the river begins to wind through the forest.

Infrastructure like the U.S. Pipeline and various transmission lines cut across the landscape of the Coeur d'Alene National Forest, illustrating the intersection of utility and nature. The map details numerous drainages such as Latour Creek, Skeel Gulch, and French Gulch that feed into the main river system. This topography captures a transition between the established riverfront settlements and the surrounding mountain peaks like Drummond Peak, providing a clear look at Shoshone County's geography before later development.
