1997 Map of Cherryville

About this map

Cherryville and the surrounding foothill communities of George and Bissell define the landscape of eastern Clackamas County during this late 1990s revision. The area is characterized by a dense network of watercourses, most notably the winding descent of Eagle Creek and its many tributaries, including North Fork Eagle Creek and South Fork Eagle Creek. This map captures a rural environment where small settlements like Firwood and Dover sit adjacent to the expanding boundaries of the Mt Hood National Forest. Local industry and infrastructure are evident through scattered resources such as the Fish Hatchery on the lower reaches of Eagle Creek and various extractive sites like the Quarry and Gravel Pit. Significant local landmarks, including Lenhart Butte and the isolated Hope Lake, provide clear orientation points for researchers tracking the historical transition of these mountain-bordering communities.
