About this map

Ione sits along the western bank of the Pend Oreille River, serving as a primary point of settlement in this northern Washington landscape. The community's industrial roots and local infrastructure are evidenced by the Ione Millpond and the Ione Municipal Airport south of town. Further downstream, the smaller settlement of Tiger marks a junction near the Tiger Slough and Tiger Meadows, surrounded by the expansive reaches of the Colville National Forest.

The terrain is defined by a dense network of mountain lakes and drainages, including Lake Leo, Frater Lake, and Browns Lake, while Hanks Butte provides a prominent high point. This area's genealogical and local history is anchored by sites like Riverside Cem, located just south of the main Ione township. The map details the transition from the river valley's settled corridors to the high, wooded ridges of the national forest.
