1967 Map of Winchester East

About this map

Winchester sits at the northern edge of this high prairie landscape on the Nez Perce Indian Reservation Boundary. The map illustrates a transition from the lakeside recreation at Winchester State Park and Lapwai Lake to the agricultural reaches of Lewis County. An Old Railroad Grade snakes across the northern sections, tracing the historic path of transit through the canyons. Further south, the settlement of Morrow and the nearby Morrow Cem provide touchpoints for local genealogy. The terrain is defined by deep drainages like Big Canyon Creek and North Fork Willow Creek, while local education and gathering spots are represented by the Pine Grove School and Talmaks Campground. This 1967 survey preserves the distribution of homesteads and small-scale infrastructure before late-century shifts.
