1957 Map of Kingston

About this map

The Cataldo Mission stands as a focal point in this 1950s survey of the Coeur d'Alene River valley. The river meanders across Mission Flats, creating a corridor for the Union Pacific Railroad and U.S. 10 that connects the settlements of Cataldo, Dudley, and Kingston. This area serves as a critical junction where the North Fork Coeur d'Alene River joins the main branch, a landscape defined by industrial and religious history. Higher elevations within the Coeur d'Alene National Forest are marked by significant peaks such as Skitwish Peak and Bumblebee Peak, while Rose Lake provides a distinct landmark in the west. The presence of the Canyon School and several Prospect labels illustrates the distribution of community and early mining interests across this mountain-and-river terrain.
