2013 Map of Genesee

About this map

Genesee sits at the heart of this Idaho landscape where the high plateau of the Palouse meets the descent toward the Clearwater River. The town is defined by a traditional grid of streets like Genesee Ave and E Chestnut St, serving as a central hub for the surrounding agricultural district. The rural character of the area is emphasized by several family-named roads, including Grieser Rd and Neyens Rd, which weave through the complex drainage patterns of Cow Cr and Union Flat Cr. Local heritage is anchored by sites like the Saint Johns Lutheran Cem on the town's western edge and the Genesee Valley Lutheran Cem to the north. These landmarks, along with the transition from Old Highway 95 to the modern Highway 95, trace the development of transportation and community life along the Latah and Nez Perce county line.
