About this map

Leadpoint serves as the central hub of this northern Stevens County landscape, situated where the Deep Lake Boundary Rd and Calhoun Mine Rd intersect. The terrain is defined by significant elevations within the Colville National Forest, including the prominent summits of Gladstone Mtn and Electric Point. This area’s history of resource extraction is evident at the Gladstone mining site, located high on the slopes above the Silver Creek drainage.

Modern recreation and heritage paths cross the rugged ridges, notably the Pacific NW National Scenic Trail which traverses south of Windy Ridge and continues through the highlands. The complex drainage network of Cedar Creek and North Fork Silver Creek feeds several high-altitude water bodies like Cedar Lake, illustrating the topographical transition from timbered peaks to the narrow valleys that supported early settlements and mining operations.
