2017 Map of Lakeview

About this map

The settlement of Lakeview sits on the eastern shore of Lake Pend Oreille, serving as a gateway into the steep terrain of the Coeur d'Alene National Forest and Kaniksu National Forest. This interior region is defined by prominent elevations including Green Mountain and Prospect Peak, and is bisected by the Bonner and Kootenai County line. The landscape shows a clear history of resource extraction and transit through labels such as the Dixie Queen mine and a network of technical routes like Silver Leaf OHV and Cat Tail OHV. Waterways like North Gold Creek and Honey Creek drain the Coeur d'Alene Mountains, carving out landforms like Kick Bush Gulch. The road system, featuring the Lakeview Road and Bunco Road, illustrates the infrastructure required to navigate the mountain passes and connect the lakefront to the higher ridges.
