About this map

The Clearwater River winds through the southwestern corner of this Idaho landscape, marking the transition from the high plateau of Woodland and Harrisburg down to the steep river canyon. This 1967 field-checked survey highlights the intricate drainage network where Lolo Creek, Texas Creek, and Schmidt Creek carve through the terrain. The presence of the Nez Perce Indian Reservation Boundary bisects the northern half of the map, illustrating the historical division of land use and administration in this region.

Small settlements and river-level markers like Pardee and Tramway sit at the base of the canyon, while the eponymous Woodland settlement sits atop the ridge. The Woodland Grade provides a glimpse into the early transportation engineering required to connect these high prairie communities with the river valley. For researchers, the map provides precise locations for benchmarks like BM 1139 and localized industrial features such as several Gravel Pits that supported local road development.
