About this map

Spirit serves as the focal point of this late-century landscape, situated along the Spirit River near the border of Price and Lincoln Counties. The settlement pattern reflects a deeply rooted agrarian and local industrial history, evidenced by Cheese Factory Road and the Settlement German district. Genealogy researchers will find valuable landmarks such as Zions Ch and Hillcrest Cem, alongside the small cluster at Townhall.

The terrain is defined by a network of waterways including Ritchie Creek, Tomahawk River, and the New Wood River. Transport history is preserved through the lingering traces of an Old Railroad Grade and Railroad Grade that once supported the local economy. The land is dotted with several Gravel Pits, pointing to the region's reliance on local mineral extraction for infrastructure and development during this era.
