Description

Heads 3.5 km (2.2 mi) southeast of Plummer Butte, flows west-southwest 19 km (12 mi) to join Hangman Creek at Tekoa, within the Coeur d'Alene Indian Reservation.

History

A proposal to change the name Little Hangman Creek to Little Latah Creek was submitted by the Chairman of the Spokane County, Washington, Board of Commissioners; the U.S. Board on Geographic Names (USBGN) rejected the proposal on 9 September 1999, because local use was strong for the name Little Hangman Creek and there was no new evidence to overturn the 1959 Board on Geographic Names (BGN) decision.
