2011 Map of Jordan Creek

About this map

North Fork Coeur d'Alene River defines the western edge of this drainage-heavy landscape on the Idaho-Montana border. The area is characterized by high-elevation landmarks such as East Cathedral Peak, Cathedral Rocks, and Divide Peak, which overlook a complex network of seasonal and year-round waterways. Historical land use is evidenced by Jordan Camp and the presence of Jordan Springs, while the southeastern corner is anchored by the prominent Shoshone Peak. Access into these higher reaches is shown via established routes like Spion Kop Rd and Shoshone Creek Rd. The convergence of Jordan Creek and the Lost Fork indicates a classic mountain valley hydrological pattern, where numerous named tributaries like Calamity Creek and Tsuga Creek feed into the larger river systems that shaped the region's geography.
