1994 Map of Elkhorn

About this map

The Little North Santiam River carves through the heavily forested canyons of Marion County, anchoring a landscape defined by timber and early recreation. Small settlements such as Elkhorn and Niagara sit along the riverbanks, with the latter marked by the Niagara Dam and Niagara Park (County). The complex topography includes high points like Mount Horeb and Henline Mountain, providing a backdrop for numerous tributaries such as Sardine Creek and Cedar Creek. To the east, the Big Cliff Res marks the controlled flow of the river system, while locations like Little Sweden hint at local history and earlier settlement patterns. The map details a network of 4WD roads and trails traversing the Willamette National Forest and Santiam State Forest, highlighting areas like the Bull of the Woods Wilderness and Salmon Falls Park (County).
