About this map

The Huckleberry Range dominates the terrain of this Stevens County survey, creating a complex geography of high summits and deep drainages. In the western reaches, the settlement of Arzina sits along Pleasant Valley Rd, serving as a primary point of human activity amidst the steep elevations of Day Mtn and Butcher Mtn. The landscape is defined by its verticality, with named peaks like Granite Mtn and Monumental Mtn presiding over a network of seasonal and permanent watercourses including Cheweka Creek and Stranger Creek.

Land use and historical extraction are evident near Old Copper Hill and the distinctive formation known as The Horseshoe. A network of rural routes, including Rickey Canyon Rd and Orin Rice Rd, connects the various basins and canyons. These roads follow the natural contours of features like Carter Canyon and Kings Canyon, illustrating how the difficult topography of Kentry Ridge has historically shaped movement and settlement patterns in this part of Washington.
