About this map

Eloika Lake and Fan Lake serve as the primary geographical anchors for this section of the Inland Northwest, where the borders of Spokane, Stevens, and Pend Oreille counties meet. The landscape is defined by the West Branch Little Spokane River and a dense network of smaller water bodies including Horseshoe Lake, Blue Lake, and Black Lake. These drainages create a complex hydrological pattern across the transition from low-lying wetlands to the elevated terrain of Porcupine Pass.

Local settlements are concentrated along the lakefronts, particularly at Sandy Beach and Spring Meadow, reflecting the region's development as a residential and recreational corridor. The map details an extensive local road network, such as Horseshoe Lake Rd and Fan Lake Rd W, which provides access to the scattered homes and timbered tracts that characterize this tri-county borderland. This 2023 survey illustrates the modern configuration of rural parcels and shoreline communities before the headwaters of the Little Spokane River.
