2023 Map of Metaline

About this map

The Pend Oreille River carves a deep path through the northeast corner of Washington, defining the landscape around Metaline Falls and the neighboring settlement of Metaline. This 2023 edition documents the area's intricate topography within the Colville National Forest, featuring prominent heights like Linton Mtn and Deer Mtn. Local history is anchored by sites such as the Metaline Cem and Perkins Family Cem, which sit near the river's edge. The waterway transitions through the dramatic Box Canyon, a narrow passage that has historically influenced navigation and industry in this remote mountain corridor. High-elevation clearings like Thorson Meadow and Cameron Meadow contrast with the dense forest, while the Cedar Cr Reservoir to the south indicates the managed water resources essential to the region's development.
