About this map

The community of Buxton serves as a central hub in this 2014 survey, where the NW Sunset Hwy and Or-47 intersect near the W Fork Dairy Cr. The landscape is defined by the winding drainages of Mendenhall Cr, Williams Cr, and Whitcher Cr, which carve through the elevations of Green Mtn and Eagle Peak. This region of Washington County reveals a mix of timbered uplands and developed valley floors, with small settlements like Manning and Hayward anchoring the local geography.

Local history and genealogy interests are well-represented by the inclusion of Buxton Cem and Hayward Cem. The map also traces the infrastructure of local aviation and water management, featuring Apple Valley Airport, Chadwick Airport, and the Schmadeke Reservoir. Narrow canyons such as Hares Canyon and Poliwaski Canyon illustrate the complex topography that has long influenced transportation and settlement patterns in this part of the Oregon Coast Range foothills.
