About this map

The Colville Indian Reservation encompasses this high-elevation landscape in Ferry County, dominated by the prominent peak of Cody Butte. A solitary Lookout Tower stands atop the butte, overlooking a complex drainage network that feeds into the Sanpoil River. The river winds through the western edge of the quadrangle, passing the Bear Creek Campground and navigating the sharp bend of Devils Elbow in the south.

The terrain is defined by a series of long, parallel drainages including Twentythree Mile Creek, Twentyfive Mile Creek, and Thirtymile Creek. These creeks, alongside North Nanamkin Creek and South Nanamkin Creek, illustrate the dissected nature of the plateau during the late twentieth century. This survey provides a clear view of the undeveloped mountain reaches of the reservation before modern changes, preserving the locations of remote creek forks and high ridges.
