About this map

Coeur d'Alene National Forest and Kanisku National Forest dominate this high-country terrain where the borders of Kootenai, Bonner, and Shoshone counties converge. This interior mountain landscape is defined by the Coeur d'Alene Mountains, featuring prominent summits such as Faset Peak, North Snow Peak, and Magee Peak. The drainage patterns are clearly delineated, with numerous watercourses like Independence Cr, Spruce Cr, and Ermine Cr carving through the steep topography.

Sparse road development, including the Ridge Rd and Bronco Rd, provides limited access to these remote peaks and high-elevation basins. Noteworthy natural landmarks include the Snowbird Meadows and Bishop Spring, which offer rare flat ground and water sources in an otherwise vertical environment. The map captures the complex administrative boundaries of Northern Idaho in a region dedicated almost entirely to timber management and wilderness conservation.
