2011 Map of Galena Point

About this map

Pelke Divide forms a prominent ridge across this mountainous section of Bonner County, separating the drainages of the Upper West Branch Priest River and several significant tributaries. High-elevation vantage points such as Pelke Lookout and Goose Creek Lookout overlook a landscape defined by sharp peaks like Galena Point and Tola Point. The hydrology of the area is complex, with the North Fork Goose Creek and Consalus Creek feeding into broader valleys. Notable lowland features include Squaw Valley in the north and the expansive Big Meadows to the east. This 2011 survey records the intricate network of forest roads and trails that traverse the divide, providing access to remote waterways like Blickensderfer Creek and Butch Creek at the southwestern edge of the quadrangle.
