1968 Map of Edgemere

About this map

Hoodoo Valley forms the central corridor of this Idaho landscape, where the Spokane International railroad parallels the winding course of Hoodoo Creek. The late 1960s terrain is dominated by the Kaniksu National Forest, with the southern reaches of the valley anchored by the settlement of Clagstone. Further north, the namesake community of Edgemere sits near the shores of Hoodoo Lake, supported by the local Edgemere Sch. Small hamlets like Vay and Harlem appear as distinct rail or road points within the valley floor. To the west, the land rises sharply toward Horn Mtn, carved by Curtis Creek. The map documents a rural timber and transport economy, where scattered Gravel Pits and primitive roads service isolated homesteads and forest tracts.
