About this map

Rockford Bay serves as the primary focal point where the waters of the Coeur d'Alene Lake meet the drainage of Fighting Cr. This landscape is defined by the significant elevation gain from the lakeshore up to the summits of Mica Peak and the Twin Peaks. The rural character of the region is evident in the dispersed settlements of Bellgrove and Red Hog, which are connected by a network of winding mountain roads and creek-side routes.

Water systems dominate the topography, with multiple branches including the N Fork Mica Cr and S Fork Mica Cr carving deep valleys through the timbered terrain. The presence of Old US Hwy 95 and the naming of School Cr point to a long-established pattern of rural transit and community life tucked into the Western Idaho mountainside, where land use is dictated by the steep gradients and the proximity to the lake.
