1952 Map of Spirit

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

The Colville National Forest dominates the landscape of this 1952 survey, centered on the small settlement of Spirit in Stevens County. The area’s economy is clearly defined by mineral extraction and processing, with an extensive network of mining operations including the Stonewall Mine, Blue Ridge Mine, and Copper King Mine. The presence of the Goldfield Mill and a Marble Quarry further emphasizes the industrial character of the region during the early fifties. Local social and civic life is anchored by the South Fork Grange and the Spirit School, situated near the confluence of the Deep Creek and the South Fork Smackout Creek. Topographically, the map transitions from the high peaks of Stoddard Mountain and Mount Rogers down through the valleys of Harrier Creek and Miller Creek, providing a detailed look at the interface between the wilderness of the national forest and the working landscape of the Pacific Northwest.
