1973 Map of Nine Mile Falls

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Riverside State Park dominates the river corridor where the Spokane River meets the Little Spokane River, preserving significant archaeological and frontier history. The presence of the Spokane House Historic Site and the Fort Spokane Historic Site marks this area as a critical early intersection of the fur trade and colonial expansion. In the 1970s, the landscape reflects a mix of recreation and utilities, with the Nine Mile Falls damming the river into the Nine Mile Res Spokane River and the upstream Long Lake. Away from the water, the terrain rises into Pine Bluff and Lookout Mtn, while a network of rural roads like Burnett Road and Wild Rose Road serves the surrounding uplands. The mapping of underwater contours by Washington Water Power Co. provides unique detail on the submerged topography of the river reservoirs.
