About this map

Hangman Creek meanders through the heart of this Spokane County landscape, serving as the primary drainage for a region defined by agricultural plots and scattered settlements. Near the creek's southern bends, the town of Latah is organized around a grid of streets including N Main St and E Market St, located just north of Cove Creek. The mapping reveals a distinct pattern of rural life, with family-named roads and multiple burial sites such as Latah Cemetery and Farmington Cemetery serving the surrounding community.

To the northwest, the town of Waverly sits along a winding stretch of Hangman Creek, its street plan featuring Riverside Ave and Walnut Ave. Smaller settlements like West Fairfield, Rahm, and Curlew appear as quiet junctions in the extensive road network. The terrain rises significantly at Gelbert Mountain in the east, providing a topographic contrast to the low-lying creek valleys that historically dictated the placement of these early agricultural hubs.
