About this map

Winchester and its surrounding high-plateau landscape are captured in this 2013 survey, which highlights the divide between the Nez Perce and Lewis County border. The settlement of Winchester sits in the northeastern corner near the shores of Lapwai Lake, while the unincorporated community of Forest occupies the southern reach along Morrowtown Rd. The topography is defined by the significant descent of Mission Cr and Webb Cr, which carve deep drainages through the tableland.

Water management and recreational access are central to this area, evidenced by the Soldiers Meadow Reservoir and the network of forest access roads like Soldiers Meadow Rd and Hoover Point Rd. This map is particularly valuable for tracing the complex intersection of land ownership and natural terrain, showing the transition from the structured street grid of Fox St and Ellis Ave to the open, ridged country of Webb Ridge.
