About this map

Dunn Mountain dominates the central terrain of this Stevens County landscape, where the high ridges separate the Colville Valley and Swiss Valley to the north from the expansive Summit Valley to the south. This area is defined by its drainage systems and small-scale agriculture, with waters like Stensgar Cr and Blue Cr carving through the timbered foothills. In the southern half of the quadrangle, the Summit Valley Cem serves as a significant landmark for genealogists and local historians, situated near the headwaters of Cassner Cr.

The presence of the Miller Reservoir and Schmid Meadows indicates a landscape historically managed for water and grazing. A network of primitive and local roads, including Old CC Rd, Addy-Gifford Rd, and Summit Valley Rd, connects the scattered homesteads and ranches that characterize this rural Washington territory. These pathways follow the natural contours of the mountain passes and creek beds, illustrating the long-standing transportation patterns used to navigate this complex topography.
