1944 Map of Clayton

About this map

Long Lake and the Spokane River anchor this mid-century survey, defining the rugged border between Stevens and Spokane counties. The landscape transitions from the upland heights of Scoop Mtn and Five Sisters down to the fertile agricultural flats of Four Mound Prairie and Rose Prairie. This era shows a well-developed network of rural infrastructure, including the Great Northern railroad corridor through Clayton and numerous local landmarks such as Happy Home Ch and the Williams Valley Cem.
