1992 Map of Rice

USGS Topo · Published 1996

About this map

The Columbia River corridor dominates this landscape, transformed by the rising waters of Franklin D Roosevelt Lake within the Coulee Dam National Recreation Area. On the eastern bank, the small settlement of Rice and the Cem nearby sit below the prominent Chalk Grade Flat, while the western shore is defined by the Colville Indian Reservation and the steep slopes of Staehly Mountain. This geography reflects a post-dam era where traditional riverside life was pushed to higher ground. Local family history and industrial footprints are evident at Staehly Ranch and the Staehly Mine, tucked into the western canyons. The map also identifies the site of Cuba and features of interest for exploration, such as Barnaby Island and the secluded Rotter Bay, alongside varied drainages like Flour Mill Creek and Quillisascut Creek.
