About this map

Chewelah serves as the focal point of this Stevens County landscape, situated where the Colville River flows through the fertile Colville Valley. The town's layout and its proximity to the Iron Mountains reveal a community built on the geography of the river and the surrounding high ground. Local history and genealogy are preserved at the Pioneer Cem and the Saint Mary of the Rosary Catholic Cem, while the Chewelah Memorial Park provides a central civic landmark south of the main settlement.

The topography transitions sharply from the valley floor to the timbered heights of the Colville National Forest. Notable peaks such as Quartzite Mtn, Eagle Mtn, and Parker Mtn define the eastern skyline. Agricultural and residential life is mapped through outlying clusters like Fairview and Cozy Nook, connected by a network of rural routes such as Sand Canyon Rd and Cozy Nook Rd that navigate the ridges and canyons.
