1911 Map of Priest Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Sandpoint and Bonners Ferry serve as the primary hubs in this early twentieth-century survey of the Idaho Panhandle. The landscape is defined by the massive waters of Priest Lake and Pend Oreille Lake, alongside the strategic rail corridors of the Spokane International Railway and the Great Northern Railway. A heavy mining presence is evident near the International Boundary Line, with operations like the Continental Mine and McLean Mine established in the northern peaks. Smaller settlements and railroad sidings such as Naples, Colburn, and Pack River Siding trace the industrial development following the river valleys. The map also delineates the early boundaries of the Kaniksu National Forest and Bitterroot National Forest, illustrating the region's transition into a managed timber and resource territory shortly after the turn of the century.
