About this map

Fan Lake and the northern reach of Eloika Lake anchor this 2014 survey of the borderlands where Stevens, Pend Oreille, and Spokane Counties converge. The hydrology of the region is defined by the W Br Little Spokane River, which connects a series of smaller water bodies including Horseshoe Lake, Blue Lake, and Black Lake. The terrain is marked by significant elevation changes, most notably at Porcupine Pass, which overlooks a landscape dotted with smaller basins like Ponderosa Lake and the interestingly named Devils Well.

Settlement patterns are centered around the lakefronts, with Sandy Beach and Spring Meadow providing established points of interest near the water. The presence of Camp Reed on the western shore of Fan Lake highlights the area's long-standing role as a recreational destination. A dense network of local roads, such as Gardenspot Rd and W Oregon Rd, provides access to these timbered highlands and waterfront communities.
