2024 Map of Jordan Creek

About this map

The North Fork Coeur d'Alene River winds through a high-altitude landscape dominated by the Coeur d'Alene National Forest and Kaniksu National Forest. This mountainous interior along the Idaho-Montana border is defined by prominent summits such as East Cathedral Peak, Shoshone Peak, and the distinctive Cathedral Rocks. The network of watercourses, including Jordan Creek, Calamity Creek, and Whitetail Creek, illustrates the complex drainage patterns of the Coeur d'Alene Mountains. Navigation through this backcountry relies on a system of forest development roads and significant trails like the Coeur d'Alene Divide National Recreation Trl. The map documents the intersection of several county and state boundaries, marking where Shoshone and Bonner counties meet the Montana state line at Jordan Saddle. This contemporary survey provides a detailed look at the topography and land management of the Shoshone Range.
