About this map

The community of Hope and its neighbor East Hope occupy the northern shoreline of Lake Pend Oreille, tucked beneath the rising slopes of the Kaniksu National Forest. This 2017 survey shows a landscape defined by the water, where several prominent landforms like Warren Island, Cottage Island, and Pearl Island sit just offshore. The residential and recreational layout of the shoreline is detailed through roads like Wellington Rd and Sam Owens Park Rd, highlighting the area's development as a lakeside retreat.

Local history is grounded in sites such as Hope Cem near the town center and the outlying settlement of Glengary across the water to the west. The map provides clear detail of the complex shoreline, from the sheltered Ellisport Bay to the marshy Denton Slough. Further south, the terrain becomes increasingly steep toward Jakes Mtn, illustrating the transition from the lake's edge to the high mountain forests of the Idaho Panhandle.
