About this map

Medical Lake serves as the central hub of this Spokane County landscape, surrounded by a high density of water bodies and military infrastructure. To the north, the sprawling grounds of Fairchild AFB dominate the terrain, while the residential and institutional layout of Lakeland Village sits just south of the main town site. The area is notable for its numerous lakes, including the large Silver Lake, Clear Lake, and Otter Lake, which likely influenced the historical development and recreational patterns of the region.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several key burial sites such as Saint Annes Cem, Medical Lake Cem, and Lakes Memorial Cem. The transportation network is anchored by the Bnsf railroad line passing through Espanola and the modern Medical Lake Cheney Interchange. Distinctive topographical markers like Fancher Butte and Olson Hill rise above the basin, providing a clear view of the transition from the Malloy Prairie to the water-rich lowlands.
