1990 Map of Potlatch

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The Palouse River winds through this northern Idaho landscape, carving a valley that anchors the company-town history of Potlatch and the neighboring community of Onaway. In the early 1990s, the area reflects a transitional rural economy where industrial footprints like a Gravel Pit and a small Landing Strip sit alongside the traditional river-oriented settlements. To the west, Potlatch Junction and Kennedy Ford mark historically significant crossing points and transit nodes near where the river meets a network of local drainages, including Gnat Creek and Deep Creek. The terrain rises sharply from the riverbanks toward distinctive high points such as Farber Point in the north and Ball Butte to the south, illustrating the complex topography that constrained development to the valley floors and narrow creek basins like Flannigan Creek.
