About this map

The Sandy area and the foothills of the Mount Hood National Forest are defined by the convergence of several major water systems. The Sandy River and Little Sandy River carve through the landscape, joined by the Bull Run River, which feeds into the Bull Run Reservoir Number Two. This watershed is critical to the region, and the map shows the transition from the concentrated residential development in the city of Sandy and the community of Firwood to the more dispersed settlements of Aims and Bull Run.

Aviation and transportation infrastructure are remarkably dense for this rural-fringe setting, including the Lehman Field Airport, McKinnon Airpark, and the Sandy River Airport. Historical crossing points like the Revenue Bridge and natural landmarks such as the Devils Backbone provide specific points of interest for local history. The map also traces the Mt Hood Hwy and various rural routes like SE Gordon Creek Rd, illustrating the modern access corridors into the national forest.
