2023 Map of Jackknife Mountain

About this map

Colville National Forest dominates this section of Ferry County, where the high ridges of the Kettle River Range create a complex drainage system. The terrain is defined by prominent elevations such as Jackknife Mtn, C C Mtn, and Graves Mtn, which separate the various forks of Deadman Creek and Trout Creek. These waterways gather from high-altitude sources like Lilly Lake and Emerald Lake, flowing through deep incisions like Merkel Canyon and Hoodoo Canyon. The map reveals a landscape managed for both timber and recreation, with established routes like the Twin Sisters Trl and Mack/King Trl providing access to remote summits. This 2023 edition documents the modern boundary lines and water systems across the T37N and T38N townships, offering a detailed perspective on the watershed that feeds into the surrounding valley systems.
