1906 Map of Coeur D'Alene District

About this map

Wallace serves as the central hub of this intensive mining landscape at the opening of the twentieth century, situated at the confluence of the South Fork Coeur d'Alene River and its tributary gulches. The terrain is defined by a dense network of high-production silver and lead operations, including the massive Bunker Hill and Sullivan Mine near Kellogg and the Tiger-Poorman Mine in the Canyon Creek corridor. The map details the critical industrial infrastructure of the era, from the Kellogg Tunnel to the Morning Mine Concentrator near Mullan. Transportation routes like the Oregon Railroad & Navigation Co. and the Northern Pacific Railway follow the river valleys, providing the essential links to outside markets. In the higher elevations of the Bitter Root Mountains, remote settlements like Sullivan and Delta appear alongside numerous named peaks and passes, including Glidden Pass and St. Regis Pass along the Montana border.
