1975 Map of Plummer SE

About this map

Chatcolet Lake borders the northern reaches of this mid-1970s orthophotoquad, where the waters meet a landscape heavily defined by timber and agriculture. Produced by the Geological Survey in cooperation with the Bureau of Indian Affairs, the map reveals the complex land-use patterns of the Coeur d'Alene Reservation. The clearings of Minaloose Valley contrast sharply with the dense forest cover surrounding Plummer Butte, illustrating the transition from lowland drainage basins to upland ridges. Key watercourses including Plummer Creek and Benewah Creek cut through the terrain, providing essential natural landmarks within this photographic record of North Idaho's interior.
