1968 Map of Limekiln Rapids

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The Snake River carves a deep path through the canyonlands of Nez Perce County, Idaho, and Asotin County, Washington, in this late 1960s survey. The confluence with the Grande Ronde River serves as a focal point near the riverside community of Rogersburg. The river's character is defined by a series of named hazards for river navigation, including Captain Lewis Rapids, Limekiln Rapids, and Wild Goose Rapids. The landscape is dominated by high ridges and peaks such as Gold Hill, Lime Hill, and Montgomery Ridge. Evidence of early resource exploration is visible at a Prospect near the riverbank, while the presence of a Gaging Station highlights the hydrological importance of this stretch of water before it flows further north. Dozens of small drainages like Shovel Creek and China Garden Creek feed into the main canyon, illustrating the complex drainage patterns of the region.
