About this map

The Pend Oreille River cuts through the southeastern corner of this Stevens County landscape, where the waters of Cedar Creek and Little Prospect Creek join the main flow. This region, documented in the early 1990s, is defined by the intersection of industrial extraction and protected wilderness. The Longshot Mine sits in the northern highlands near South Fork Mill Creek, while the southern reaches are dominated by the Little Pend Oreille National Wildlife Refuge.

Elevations vary significantly across the terrain, from the heights of Dominion Mtn and Green Mtn down to the quiet shores of Little Twin Lakes and Black Lake. The small settlement at Park Rapids serves as a focal point near the river, situated where the Little Pend Oreille State Wildlife Area meets the waterway. This map illustrates the complex land management boundaries of the Colville National Forest and the natural cascades at Crystal Falls.
