2023 Map of Elk

About this map

Elk serves as the primary settlement center where the Little Spokane River meets the valley floor near the southern boundary of Pend Oreille County. This 2023 survey documents a landscape defined by its namesake drainage and the surrounding ridges, including Bare Mtn and the transition through Rogers Pass. To the west, Eloika Lake and its residential developments at Pocahontas Bay contrast with the higher-elevation timberlands of Shadow Valley and Fertile Valley. For genealogists and local historians, the inclusion of Elk Cem Number 1 and smaller landmarks like Camp Joubert provide specific points of interest within the broader rural framework. The mapping of infrastructure like the Elk Heights Airport and the complex network of local connectors such as Old State Hwy 2-TPS Rd reflects the modern accessibility of this historically agrarian and timber-oriented region.
