About this map

Keuterville sits at the heart of this Idaho landscape, where the agricultural flats of the Camas Prairie give way to the prominent elevation of Cottonwood Butte. The 1967 field survey documents a mix of rural community life and government activity, featuring the St Gertrude Academy and its nearby Cem, alongside the Cottonwood Job Corps Center. A web of drainage systems, including Lawyer Creek and Grave Creek, carves through the terrain, illustrating the complex hydrology that defines this part of Idaho County.

The northern portion of the map is marked by the Nez Perce Indian Reservation Boundary, while the western edge shows the Lewis-Idaho County line. Notable infrastructure from this era includes a Radio Facility perched on the butte and various Sewage Disposal Ponds near the local institutions. This map provides a clear record of land use at the end of the 1960s, capturing the transition from traditional prairie farming to institutional and technical development.
