About this map

The Willamette River and Santiam River converge in this mid-century portrait of the fertile valley between the Mc Donald Forest and the cascades foothills. The city of Albany serves as the regional hub, its grid intersected by the Southern Pacific railroad and the Pacific Highway. The landscape is defined by its complex hydrology, featuring numerous oxbow lakes and islands such as Horseshoe Lake, Thornton Lake, and Stahlbusch Island, reflecting the shifting nature of the river channels before major flood control measures were finalized.
