2011 Map of Malo

About this map

Malo and the Malo Post Office serve as the central hub for this corner of Ferry County, where the valley floor of Curlew Creek meets the surrounding highlands. The geography is defined by a dendritic network of drainages including Tonasket Creek, Aeneas Creek, and Art Creek which all feed into the primary north-south corridor. To the south, the landscape opens into Saint Peter Flat, a notable plateau situated above the confluence of the North Fork and South Fork Saint Peter Creek. A network of rural forest and county roads, such as County Hwy 582 and Tonasket Mountain Rd, provides access to the diverse terrain. The presence of Green Spring in the southeastern quadrant suggests the vital importance of water sources in this high-country environment.
