About this map

The Pend Oreille River flows north through this corridor of eastern Washington, carving a broad valley between the Kaniksu National Forest and the Kalispel Indian Reservation. The river's influence on local life is evident in the cluster of infrastructure near Cusick, where a Gaging Station and Sewage Disposal Pond sit alongside the County Fairground. South of the village, the landscape opens into the wetlands of Calispell Lake and the meandering path of Calispell Creek.

Cultural landmarks like the Indian Community Hall and Community Hall in Usk mark the centers of local social life in the early 1990s. The western hills are defined by timber and recreation, noted by the Batey Bould ORV Trailhead and the winding Flowery Trail Road. Several small drainage systems, including Winchester Creek and Davis Creek, feed into the central basin, illustrating the complex hydrology of this riverside territory.
