2017 Map of Sagle

About this map

Lake Pend Oreille dominates the northern landscape of this Bonner County quadrangle, where the waters of Murphy Bay and Springy Point meet the rugged terrain of Tank Hill. Settlement patterns in the early 21st century follow the historical transit corridors south of Dover, with the communities of Sagle, Algoma, and Dufort clustered along the primary north-south artery. The geography is defined by a dense network of mountain drainages, including Cocolalla Cr and Westmond Cr, which flow through the timberlands toward Cocolalla Lake. To the southeast, the terrain rises sharply into the Kaniksu National Forest, reaching the heights of Butler Mtn and Bimetallic Ridge. For genealogists and local historians, the Westmond Cem near Westmond provides a specific point of reference for the families who settled this timber and lakeside region.
