About this map

The Clearwater River winds through the southern portion of this landscape, defining the local geography and supporting the small riverside communities of Lenore, Agatha, and Wifola. Along the riverbanks, infrastructure like Grain Elevators, a Boat Ramp, and a Post Office in Lenore point to a settlement pattern centered on the water and regional transport. Further north, the plateau is marked by more isolated agricultural settlements like Cameron and Leland, the latter situated near the headwaters of Pine Creek.

A significant portion of the map is defined by the Nez Perce Indian Reservation Boundary, which cuts across the central ridges. Topographical features such as Potlatch Ridge, Amos Bench, and Cream Ridge rise sharply above the river canyon, interspersed with landmarks including the Lenore Cem, a local School, and a Landing Strip near Cameron. Evidence of former habitation or structures appears in the form of identified Ruins located along the upper slopes of Cream Ridge.
