2020 Map of Whitestone Rock

About this map

Whitestone Rock stands as a prominent geological landmark overlooking the Columbia River's reach within the Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area. This stretch of the Franklin D Roosevelt Lake serves as the dividing line between Ferry and Lincoln counties, where the canyon walls drop steeply toward the water. The landscape is defined by its dramatic verticality, from the high Whitestone Ridge in the northeast down to Hellgate Island and the mouth of Hell Gate Canyon. Numerous drainage systems like Penix Canyon, Moyer Canyon, and Wynhoff Canyon cut through the terrain, suggesting a complex watershed that flows into bays such as Jones Bay and Lundstrom Bay. Local access is maintained through a network of rural routes including Williams Flat Rd and Jones Bay Rd N, providing a modern look at a region where land management and recreation intersect along the river's historic path.
