About this map

The Clearwater River winds through this 1960s landscape, serving as a primary corridor for the Camas Prairie railroad and local transportation. The town of Kamiah occupies the river terrace, supported by a network of infrastructure including a Gaging Station, Water Tanks, and Sewage Disposal Ponds. This period of development is characterized by the presence of a Trailer Park and a Substation near the river bend, while the higher elevations show the agricultural and natural transition into the surrounding draws and plateaus.

Rural life is anchored by the small settlement of Winona in the southwest corner, where the Winona Cem remains a notable genealogical landmark. The terrain is deeply incised by Lawyer Creek and Sevenmile Creek, with steep descents managed by routes like the Woodland Grade and Beaverslide Road. A portion of the Nez Perce National Historical Park is established along the river, preserving the cultural landscape near East Kamiah.
