About this map

Wellington Peak anchors this corner of Stevens County, rising above a landscape defined by the intersection of the Huckleberry Range and The Summit Range. The geography of the early 21st century reveals a network of high-elevation points like Quartz Mtn and Old Baldy set against deep geographic recesses including Twilight Canyon and Buck Canyon. This map preserves the locations of rural communities and homesteads that have long characterized the region, from Waterloo and Goose Heaven in the north to the settlement of Maud near the Stranger Creek Cem.

The road network, including Addy Gifford Rd and Daisy Mine Rd, follows the natural contours of the land, connecting isolated points like Hungry Hollow and Taylor Flat. This survey highlights the intricate drainage systems of Stranger Cr and its tributaries, which have shaped the settlement patterns of Summit Valley and Schmid Meadows. The presence of The Natural Bridge underscores the unique geologic features found within the high timberlands.
