1951 Map of Packsaddle Mtn

About this map

Pend Oreille Lake dominates the center of this 1951 survey, its deep waters and irregular shoreline defining the life and industry of the region. On the northern shores, the communities of Hope and East Hope sit along the Northern Pacific railroad line, while smaller landings and settlements like Blacktail, Talache, and Glengary appear on the western banks. The map documents an active extractive landscape, showing numerous operations including the Gold Coin Mine, Sulphide Mine, and Minerva Mine. Inland, the landscape is heavily forested, partitioned into the Kaniksu National Forest and Coeur D'Alene National Forest. This era of stewardship is represented by the Pend Oreille State Game Preserve and landmarks such as the Newman Sch and the Broten PO, illustrating the scattered rural infrastructure of northern Idaho during the mid-century.
