About this map

Moravia and the surrounding timberlands of the Kaniksu National Forest define this 1990s survey of Idaho's northern panhandle. The Kootenai River snakes through the eastern landscape, supporting the Kootenai National Wildlife Refuge and a network of technical infrastructure including a pumping station and gaging station. The transition from the river valley to the steep high country is marked by landmarks like Snow Peak and the Myrtle Creek State Game Preserve.

Local civic and industrial history is anchored by the Grange Hall near the settlement of Burns, while the presence of a Gravel Pit and several creek-side stations suggests a landscape balancing natural preservation with resource management. Water is a dominant theme, from the descent of Snow Creek Falls to the various drainages like Myrtle Creek and Caribou Creek that feed the river system across the Boise Meridian.
