2023 Map of Malo

About this map

Curlew and Malo anchor this portion of Ferry County, situated within the expansive Colville National Forest. The landscape is defined by the drainage systems of Curlew Creek and the intricate forks of Saint Peter Creek, including both the North Fork Saint Peter Creek and South Fork Saint Peter Creek. This contemporary survey illustrates a rural landscape where narrow valley bottoms like Saint Peter Flat host small clusters of habitation while the surrounding uplands remain heavily forested. Genealogical researchers will find the Curlew City Cem positioned just north of the town center. The map also traces various family-named routes and service roads, such as Bjork Ranch Rd and Hillard Ranch, reflecting the enduring legacy of ranching in this corner of Washington. Higher elevations are accessible via routes like the Big Lick Trl near Green Spring, highlighting the intersection of public forest land and local resource management.
