2013 Map of Peck

About this map

Peck sits at the northern edge of the Nez Perce and Clearwater county line, overlooking the winding Clearwater River as it passes Harpers Bend. This landscape is defined by its deep drainages and high plateaus, where Big Canyon Cr and Little Canyon Cr carve through the terrain. To the south, the settlement of Melrose occupies a high point between the systems of Jacks Cr and Nichols Canyon. The map reveals a high density of rural cemeteries, including Old Good Hope Cem and Angel Ridge Cem, suggesting a long-standing community tied to these ridges. The intricate network of grade roads, such as Old Melrose Grade Rd and Angel Ridge Grade, illustrates the complex engineering required to navigate the dramatic elevation changes between the river valley and the agricultural tablelands of Central Ridge.
