2020 Map of Hayden Lake

About this map

Lake Hayden serves as the central focal point of this Kootenai County landscape, where the water meets the western edge of the Coeur D'Alene National Forest. The map documents a blend of established residential areas and rugged timberland, with small lakeside settlements such as Rockaway Beach and Clarksville dotting the shoreline. Inland, the terrain rises sharply toward Hollister Mtn and Hudlow Mtn, cut by a network of drainages including N Fork Hayden Cr and Mokins Cr. To the north, the community of Chilco and the waters of Chilco Lake sit along the path of Old US Hwy 95, marking the transition from the prairie toward the mountains. Significant topographical features like Yellowbanks Ridge and Deerfoot Ridge define the eastern horizons, while numerous named bays and points, such as English Point and Yellowstone Point, illustrate the complex shoreline and local geography utilized by residents and visitors alike.
