About this map

Prichard and Eagle sit at the center of this mountain landscape, positioned along the winding course of Prichard Creek and its confluence with the North Fork Coeur d'Alene River. This area of the Coeur d'Alene National Forest is defined by an intricate network of deep gulches and high ridges, including the Shoshone Range and Lost Creek Ridge. The map documents a rugged interior geography where small settlements are linked by forest development roads like Nat For Dev Rd 208 and primitive 4WD tracks.

Local history is etched into the terrain through numerous named gulches such as Nocelly Gulch, Fancy Gulch, and McComber Gulch, which suggest a legacy of prospecting and resource extraction in the Idaho panhandle. High points like Sparta Peak, Prichard Peak, and Kings Point provide a sense of the vertical scale of the region. Waterways such as W Fork Eagle Cr and E Fork Eagle Cr drain the eastern slopes, illustrating the complex hydrology that shaped both the industry and the access routes of Shoshone County.
