About this map

Dallas serves as the primary hub of this landscape, situated where the foothills of the Coast Range begin their descent toward the Willamette Valley. The geography is defined by a dense network of private irrigation and water storage, evidenced by dozens of small reservoirs such as Hoekstre Reservoir, Aebi Reservoir, and Schierling Reservoir. These water features, alongside Hoekstre Slough and Rickreall Creek, illustrate a highly managed agricultural environment focused on water control for the valley's farms.

Genealogists will find several burial grounds documented throughout the rural outskirts, including Dallas Cem, Salt Creek Cem, and Embree Cem near Fir Villa. The map also captures the varied terrain of the region, from the flat reaches of Baskett Slough in the northeast to the prominent height of Mt Pisgah in the south. Smaller historical points like Ellendale and the transit corridors of NE Kings Valley Highway and Or-22 provide context for the area's development and connectivity in Polk County.
