2017 Map of Santa

About this map

The Saint Maries River winds through this Idaho landscape, anchoring several small settlements that define the region's historical development. The community of Santa sits near the confluence of local tributaries, while the former rail stops or timber-related hamlets of Mashburn, Wayland, and Renfrew follow the river valley's natural corridor. The terrain is marked by significant elevations including Pettis Peak and Wilson Mtn, which frame the high country and the grazing lands of Elkhorn Meadows. A network of forest and logging roads such as Davis Creek Rd and Renfro Creek Rd crisscrosses the slopes, illustrating how the geography dictated local travel and industry. To the north, the small settlement of Flat Creek provides a focal point for the headwaters of its namesake stream, Flat Creek, amidst the high points of Beaver Ridge.
