About this map

Rock Creek and its many tributaries, including North Fork Rock Creek and Rose Creek, carve through the rolling plateau landscape along the Washington and Idaho border. This early 21st-century survey reveals a rural territory defined by a strictly organized grid of gravel and paved roads, reflecting long-established agricultural boundaries. Small communities and named locales such as Setters, Saxby, and Coey serve as anchors for the surrounding farms.

Education and community life are represented by La Shaw School and the McIntosh Grange, providing essential touchstones for genealogists tracing local family histories. The terrain is punctuated by prominent rises like Starr Butte and McGowan Butte, while the nomenclature of the road system, such as W Missile Base Rd, hints at the Cold War infrastructure that once marked this region near the border.
