2020 Map of Orofino East

About this map

The Clearwater River serves as the primary geographic corridor through this section of Idaho, winding through a landscape shaped by significant elevation changes and deep creek drainages. Along its banks, the settlement of Orofino stands as a focal point, connected to outlying residential areas like Konkolville and the elevated plateaus of Crockett Bench. The mapping details the transition from the river valley to the high timber and agricultural lands, where smaller communities such as Greer and Fraser are established. Local history is anchored by landmarks like the Hill Cem and a dense network of mountain roads, including the Old Deer Creek Grade and Upper Fords Creek Rd, which reflect the region's logging and ranching heritage. Numerous tributaries like Orofino Cr and Jim Ford Cr carve through the terrain, illustrating the complex hydrology of Clearwater County.
