About this map

Farmington sits at the intersection of agricultural heartland and timbered foothills along the border of Whitman and Latah counties. This landscape is defined by the drainage systems of North Fork Pine Creek and Silver Creek, which cut through the rolling Palouse terrain. To the east, the topography rises sharply toward Stratton Butte and Palmer Butte, marking the western edge of the St. Joe National Forest.

Genealogists will find interest in the proximity of Farmington Cem to the town center and the Silver Creek Cem located further south near Silver Creek. The area around the settlement of Walters and the winding course of Pine Creek illustrate the rural road network, including historic routes like Skyline Drive Rd and Mail Route Rd, which have served these farming and forest communities for generations.
