About this map

The Columbia River and the expansive Franklin D Roosevelt Lake dominate this landscape on the border of Ferry and Lincoln Counties. The geography is defined by the massive Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area, where the Sanpoil River Arm reaches north through the high desert terrain. Notable landmarks like China Bluff and Clark Point overlook the water, marking the transition from the river's original path to the reservoirs created by regional dam projects.

Historically significant crossings are represented by the Keller Ferry, a vital link for travelers moving through this portion of eastern Washington. The land surrounding the water features localized basins and canyons, such as the Swawilla Basin and Penix Canyon. Small water bodies like French Johns Lake and various coves including Covington Cove provide additional geographic detail for those tracing the shoreline or family roots in the Clark and Lincoln County area.
