About this map

Ashland serves as the focal point of this 2011 survey, situated at the intersection of a complex water management and transportation network. The landscape is defined by the vital Bear Creek and its associated irrigation infrastructure, including the East Lateral, West Lateral, and Ashland Lateral. Cultural and civic history is well-documented through numerous burial grounds such as the Independent Order of Odd Fellows Cemetery and Mount View Cemetery, while the presence of Southern Oregon State University marks the town's role as an educational hub.

South of the city, the terrain rises toward Winburn Mountain and the Ashland Watershed, where the resource economy of the past is visible at the Lamb Mine. The map details important local reservoirs like Reeder Reservoir and Crowson Reservoir, which are fed by the East Fork Ashland Creek and West Fork Ashland Creek. Small outlying settlements and landmarks, such as Belleview and the Ashland Municipal Airport-Sumner Parker Field, round out this portrait of Jackson County's development.
