2011 Map of Oroville

About this map

Osoyoos Lake and the Similkameen River converge at Oroville, creating a landscape defined by its waterways and international proximity. This northern Washington community, situated just south of the Oroville-Osoyoos Port of Entry, serves as a critical junction where the river systems meet to form the Okanogan River. The local economy is represented by industrial landmarks like Zosels Mill and its associated Zosels Mill Pond Dam, while the rugged foothills are marked by the OK Copper Mine near Kruger Mountain. Transport patterns here are unique, featuring both the Dorothy Scott Airport and the Scott Seaplane Anchorage on the lake's western shore. Genealogists will find the Riverview Cemetery positioned overlooking the river valley, while the grid of Oroville includes the Oroville Post Office and various family-named roads such as Sprouse Rd and Thorndike Dr.
