About this map

Heyburn State Park dominates the northeast quadrant of this landscape, where the waters of Lake Coeur d'Alene meet the forested ridges of Benewah County. The map documents a transition from the lakeside recreation of Chatcolet and Hawleys Landing to the interior agricultural and timber lands of the Minaloosa Valley. This inland area is defined by a network of drainage systems including Plummer Creek and Little Plummer Creek, which carve through the terrain beneath Plummer Butte.

Transport and access are central to the settlement pattern, with Plummer Junction serving as a key node for the local road network, including the winding Minaloosa Rd and Coon Creek Rd. The presence of the Heyburn Youth Camp and the named Plummer Peninsula highlights the long-standing significance of this shoreline for public use and conservation. Further south, the map details more isolated fire trails and forest roads like the USFS Fire Trl, tracing the rugged ascent into the surrounding highlands.
