1990 Map of Little Bear Ridge

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Little Bear Ridge and Big Bear Ridge dominate this Latah County landscape, where the high plateau is deeply incised by the drainage of Little Bear Creek and Big Bear Creek. The settlement at Bovard sits near the head of a significant gulch, surrounded by a network of agricultural ridges including Burnt Ridge and American Ridge. For those tracing local families, the map identifies several pioneer-era burial sites, such as Burnt Ridge Cem, Little Bear Ridge Cem, Bethel Cem, and Spencer Cem. The topography is shaped by water, from Spring Valley Creek in the north to the Potlatch River which cuts across the southeast corner. Human activity is evidenced by a scattered infrastructure of rural life, including a remote Landing Strip and a Gravel Pit, positioned amidst the complex terrain of Brady Gulch and McCloud Gulch.
