About this map

Nine Mile Falls serves as a focal point along the Spokane River in this modern topographical survey of the borderlands between Stevens Co and Spokane Co. The landscape transition is evident as the river flows through Riverside State Park, widening into Long Lake to the west. To the northeast, the terrain levels out into the broad agricultural expanse of Wild Rose Prairie, while the southern reaches of the map show the encroaching residential expansion of Spokane near Pine Bluff.

Detailed drainage patterns are visible through Little Sandy Canyon and Barney Coker Canyon, illustrating the complex erosional history of the area. Regional connectivity is defined by established routes like N Nine Mile Rd and W Rutter Pkwy, which link these rural communities to the city. Notable peaks such as Lookout Mtn and the winding Osprey Loop trail provide a look at the recreational and geographic character of the corridor today.
