About this map

Moyie Springs and the dramatic confluence of the Moyie River and Kootenai River dominate this 2020 landscape in northern Idaho. The topography is defined by the steep descent of the water near Moyie Falls, surrounded by the high elevations of the Cabinet Mountains and the Purcell Mountains. These ranges meet within the Kaniksu National Forest, creating a complex network of ridges and drainages.

Smaller settlements and points of interest like Crossport and Katka are linked by a system of rural roads and forest routes, including Old US Hwy 2 and Moyie River Rd. This survey highlights the relationship between the river corridor and the high-altitude landmarks such as Two Tail Peak, Katka Ridge, and Clifty Mountain, illustrating how the geography dictates human passage through this part of Boundary County.
