1996 Map of Skookum Creek

USGS Topo · Published 2000

About this map

The Pend Oreille River defines the western edge of this landscape, its banks marked by the Kalispel Indian Reservation and the local Skookum Community Center. This 1996 update of the 1965 survey reveals a terrain of timber and high ridges, including Bear Paw Ridge and Skookum Peak, managed within the Kaniksu National Forest. The map shows a mix of recreational and scientific land use, from the State Fish Hatchery to the specialized Newport Geophysical Observatory (USGS). Numerous small bodies of water like Cooks Lake, Horseshoe Lake, and Bead Lake are tucked into the drainages of Skookum Creek and its various forks. Notable for local researchers is the network of forestry roads and light-duty paths, such as Le Clerc Road, that provide access to the high meadows and ridges typical of the Pacific Northwest forest interior.
