2011 Map of Plains

About this map

The town of Plains sits within a wide bend of the Clark Fork river, serving as a hub for the surrounding ranching and timber country of Sanders County. This 2011 survey illustrates the community's infrastructure, including the Plains Airport and the Plains District Ranger Office, alongside local landmarks like the Sanders County Fairgrounds. The geography is defined by the river's drainage network, fed by Lynch Creek and Combest Creek, while Combest Peak rises as a prominent high point to the south. For those tracing family histories or local development, the map identifies both the Plains Cemetery and the Lynch Cemetery, as well as the Plains-Paradise Rural Fire Dist. The layout of roads like River Rd W and Blackjack Rd shows how the settlement pattern follows the contours of the valley floor and the creek drainages.
