2017 Map of Wallace

About this map

The S Fork Coeur d'Alene River valley forms the industrial and residential spine of this northern Idaho landscape, where the communities of Wallace, Osburn, and Silverton are concentrated between high mountain ridges. This 2017 survey details the complex geography of the Silver Valley, from the urban streets of Bank ST and Mullan Ave to the isolated peaks of the St Joe Mountains. Local history is anchored by the Miners Union Cem and Nine Mile Cem near Woodland Park, reflecting the region's deep mining heritage. To the south, the terrain rises into the Coeur d'Alene National Forest and St. Joe National Forest, a wilderness defined by prominent landmarks like Placer Peak and the Coeur d'Alene Saint Joe Divide. The map traces numerous gulches and creeks, such as Shields Gulch and Placer Cr, that have long shaped the region's development and natural resource extraction.
