About this map

St. Maries serves as the focal point of this northern Idaho landscape, situated at the confluence of the Saint Joe River and the Saint Maries River. The town's grid is well-defined, stretching from Saint Maries Ave down to Lincoln Ave, with the St. Maries Municipal Airport and Woodlawn Cem anchoring the western side of the community. The surrounding terrain is a complex network of ridges and drainages, featuring landmarks such as Kings Peak and the prominent Chat'u'washa'lqs Bluff overlooking the river valley.

Industrial and residential extensions are visible in the neighboring clusters of Riverdale, Meadowhurst, and Milltown, which follow the northern bank of the Saint Joe River. The map highlights the area's river-driven geography, including the La'q'ukw' Rapid and several small lakes like Swan Lake and Bells Lake. This survey captures the town as a developed regional hub surrounded by steep gulches and draws, including Stickney Gulch and Cedar Draw, illustrating the intersection of a riverfront economy and the rising timbered slopes of Benewah County.
