1948 Map of Lincoln

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Franklin D Roosevelt Lake dominates the center of this 1940s landscape, illustrating the transformation of the upper Columbia River following the completion of the Grand Coulee Dam. Along the southern banks, the settlement of Lincoln sits near an Air Strip and the winding Hawk Creek, while to the east, the confluence with the Spokane River is guarded by the site of Fort Spokane. The map captures a moment of transition where established highland agriculture on Bachelor Prairie and Swede Flats meets the newly created shoreline of the Coulee Dam National Recreational Area. North of the water, the Colville Indian Reservation contains landmarks like Johnny George Mtn and the remote Rothlisburg Sch. Small rural centers such as Enterprise and Miles serve the surrounding Enterprise Valley, connected by the historic Spokane Trail Road.
