2011 Map of Skookum Creek

About this map

The Pend Oreille River flows along the western edge of this terrain, where modern developments like Pondoray Shores Rd meet the upland wilderness of the Colville National Forest area. The landscape is defined by the convergence of the North Fork Skookum Creek and South Fork Skookum Creek, creating a complex drainage system that supports high-elevation features like Conklin Meadow and Cooks Lake. Industrial and recreational footprints are evident through the Hermann Pit in the north and the No Name Lake Campground to the east near Bead Lake. This 2011 survey captures the area’s identity as a hub for both resource extraction and outdoor recreation, with numerous forest service roads like Skookum Creek Rd and Bear Paw Rd providing access to the peaks and ridges.
