About this map

Mica Peak and Twin Peaks dominate the western horizon of this Kootenai County landscape, where the high ridges drop toward the western shores of Lake Coeur d'Alene. The settlement pattern follows the drainage of Mica Creek and its various forks, with the community of Bellgrove situated along the lower reaches near the Coeur d'Alene Indian Reservation Boundary.

A network of rural roads like Lodge Road and Hamaker Road connect small settlements and isolated structures, including a local School and various radio towers. The presence of Mica Flats and a Borrow Pit suggests the local economy's ties to the land's geology. This 1981 survey documents the intersection of protected tribal lands, upland timber areas, and the developing recreational waterfront at Rockford Bay.
