1911 Map of Sandpoint

About this map

Sandpoint and the surrounding Idaho panhandle are depicted here following a 1911 revision, showcasing a landscape defined by its timbered slopes and river-based transport. The rugged topography of the Selkirk Mountains dominates the central portion of the sheet, largely contained within the Kaniksu National Forest. Transportation at this time relied heavily on both the river system and the burgeoning rail network, with multiple ferries such as Baldwin Ferry and Hamill Ferry providing vital crossings on the Priest River.
