1968 Map of Limekiln Rapids

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Rogersburg stands at the confluence where the Grande Ronde River meets the northward flow of the Snake River on this Idaho-Washington borderland study. The river corridor is defined by a series of treacherous navigation points, including Captain Lewis Rapids, Limekiln Rapids, and Wild Goose Rapids, reflecting the challenging river-based transport economy of the mid-twentieth century. Away from the water, the landscape rises sharply toward Montgomery Ridge and Limestone Point, cut by deep gulches like Fisher Gulch and Perkins Gulch. A solitary Prospect near the riverbank and a Gaging Station indicate the modest industrial and monitoring activities present in this sparsely settled canyon reach. The network of unimproved dirt roads provides a look at the remote access patterns before modern developments altered the character of the Nez Perce and Asotin county border.
