1985 Map of Sitdown Mtn.

About this map

The Colville Indian Reservation boundary defines the southern half of this landscape, where the terrain rises toward the prominent heights of Sitdown Mountain and Johns Mountain. To the north, the Colville National Forest encompasses a series of steep drainages and prominent ridges including Onion Ridge and Buckhorn Ridge. This 1985 survey illustrates the recreational development of the era, marking the Buckskin Creek Campground and the CCC Campground along the winding course of Hall Creek. The topography is defined by significant elevations like Grizzly Mountain and Lynx Mountain, which overlook a network of seasonal streams such as Sleepy Hollow Creek and Sitdown Creek. The map provides a clear record of the jurisdictional division between federal forest lands and tribal reservation territory in the mountains of Ferry County.
