1986 Map of Dorena Lake

About this map

Dorena Lake serves as the central anchor of this mid-1980s landscape, where the Row River and several smaller tributaries like Gettings Creek and Mosby Creek feed into the reservoir. The map documents a recreational and industrial transition, featuring public spaces such as Schwartz Park and Baker Bay Park alongside infrastructure like a Sub Sta and a Quarry. Transportation history is visible through the Old RR Grade winding along the riverbank and the Trans Line cutting through the terrain. Civil engineering and local connectivity are noted by the presence of the Currin Bridge and Stewart Bridge, which provide crossings near the settlement of Dorena. The surrounding topography is marked by prominent heights including Cerro Gordo and Bear Mountain, reflecting the varied elevations of the Lane County landscape before later development altered these rural corridors.
