About this map

Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area dominates this Stevens County landscape, where the impounded waters of Franklin D Roosevelt Lake define the modern shoreline. The settlement of Marcus sits perched above the water, while smaller locales like Evans and Bear trace the higher ground along the eastern bank. The terrain rises sharply from the Marcus Flats toward prominent heights such as Gold Hill and the Seven Devils formation.

Historical markers of the region's development are evident in the placement of Grandview Cem and Bossburg Cem, alongside infrastructure like the Kettle Falls Bridge and Hedlund Bridge. The presence of Gold Edge Mine Rd and Flat Creek Field points to the area's legacy of resource extraction and land use. Isolated water bodies like Harlin Lake and Hyatt Lake are tucked into the drainages surrounding the central river valley.
