About this map

The Columbia River corridor, transformed into Lake Franklin D Roosevelt, serves as the focal point for this mid-1980s look at northeastern Washington. Within the boundaries of the Colville Indian Reservation, the community of Inchelium and the nearby Colville Indian Subagency anchor the western shore. The landscape transitions from the aquatic expanse of the Coulee Dam National Recreation Area to the rugged uplands of Stranger Mountain and Rainy Ridge.

Resource extraction and transit patterns are well-documented, from the Guinn Mine and various Prospect sites to the Ferry crossing that links the west bank to Gifford and Daisy in Stevens County. Features like Hall Creek Flat and Monument Butte define the local topography, while recreational development is noted at the Cloverleaf Beach Campground and various boat ramps along the fluctuating reservoir shoreline.
