About this map

The Northern Pacific railroad corridor anchors this survey of Bonner County, tracing a north-south path through the Idaho panhandle and connecting several rural rail stops. Small settlements like Sagle, Algoma, Dufort, and Westmond appear as vital nodes along the tracks, interspersed with numerous Gravel Pits that suggest the region's industrial and infrastructure activity in the late 1960s.

The landscape transitions from the shores of the Pend Oreille River and Cocolalla Lake into the elevations of the Kaniksu National Forest. Notable landmarks include the State Fish Hatchery near Murphy Bay and the isolated Hope and Faith Shaft on the slopes of Bimetallic Ridge. For genealogists and local historians, the Westmond Cem and family-named water bodies like Shepherd Lake and Heath Lake offer specific points of interest within this lakeside and forest geography.
