1932 Map of Trout Creek

About this map

Noxon and Trout Creek serve as the primary hubs for this 1930s-era survey of the rugged Cabinet and Coeur d'Alene Mountains. The Northern Pacific railroad follows the Clark Fork River, connecting several rural educational centers like Larchwood School and Tuscor School with the broader region. The landscape is a network of fire management and industry, featuring prominent fire watches such as Smeads Lookout and Bloom Peak Lookout. Local industrial activity is evidenced by the Tuscor Mill and the Jack White Mine, while the presence of the Trout Creek Ranger Station highlights the coordinated federal management of the Cabinet National Forest and Coeur d'Alene National Forest during the interwar period.
