About This File
Idaho Panhandle.
This region is based on DEM data with small alterations for
playability. This is most evident in the courses of the rivers and the lake in
the NW corner, as these areas had to be adjusted in terms of elevation in order
to appear as water. The region is focused
on the Panhandle of Idaho. The map is
bounded on the north by the 49th parallel and the border with British Columbia,
to the west by the border with Washington state and to the east by the border
with Montana.
The large lake dominating the map is Lake Pend Oreille, fed by the Clark Fork
entering from the east. The town of
Sandpoint sits on the lakes northern shore.
The lake in the northwest of the map is Priest Lake. The river flowing through the prime farmland
to north is the Kootenai, the town of Bonners Ferry sits on its banks.
The image has been rendered with CPT's Olympic
Terrain Mod. The region itself was terraformed to fit with
both the textures of this mod, and the height at which rock/snow begins and
highly recommend it. You can, of course,
use any terrain mod you please with this region.
