1942 Map of Marcus
USGS Topo · Published 1942About this map
Kettle River and the Columbia River converge in this 1930s-era topographic study, depicting a landscape defined by its mining heritage and riverfront settlements. The Great Northern Railway tracks follow the western bank of the Columbia, linking established communities like Marcus, Bossburg, and Evans before the dramatic changes brought by river development. Numerous mines, including the Kettle River Mine, First Thought Mine, and Big Iron Mine, are scattered across the high country, reflecting the intensive mineral exploration in the Colville National Forest during this period.
