About this map

The Pend Oreille River flows across the northern edge of this landscape, marking a vital corridor where the settlements of Dalkena and Furport were established. To the south, the topography rises toward the high points of Saddle Mtn and Sand Butte, while the interior of the quadrangle is defined by a series of distinct water bodies and marshes, including Mountain Meadows Lake, Panhandle Lake, and the expansive Mallard Marsh.

Large portions of the eastern and northern terrain fall within the Kaniksu National Forest, where a network of forest roads and trails like Jones Trl and Baker Lake Rd navigate the timbered slopes. Near the southern border, the community surrounding Diamond Lake serves as a primary local hub, connected to the river valley by rural routes that trace the natural contours of Deer Valley and the banks of McCloud Cr.
