1968 Map of Morton

About this map

The Pend Oreille River dominates this Bonner County landscape, serving as a primary corridor for both topography and transportation in the late 1960s. The dual presence of the Great Northern and Spokane International railroads highlights the area's importance as a Pacific Northwest transit artery, connecting the small settlements of Wrencoe and Morton. This survey documents a balance of industry and conservation, with a Gravel Pit located near the confluence of local roads and the river, while vast tracts of the Kaniksu National Forest preserve the surrounding uplands. The presence of Round Lake State Park and named water bodies like Jewel Lake and Morton Slough indicates a mid-century landscape transitioning toward recreation. The terrain is marked by significant elevations such as Black Pine Mtn and the broad Otts Basin to the east.
