2020 Map of Florence

About this map

Florence and the surrounding Lane County coast are defined by the complex convergence of the Siuslaw River and a massive system of freshwater lakes. This 2020 edition detail the intricate estuarine environment where the North Fork Siuslaw River meets the main channel near Cushman, punctuated by landforms like Cox Island and Bull Island. To the south, the landscape shifts into the coastal dunes and timberlands of the Siuslaw National Forest, surrounding significant water bodies such as Woahink Lake and Siltcoos Lake. Local history is preserved in several burial grounds, including the Heceta Lodge Number 11 IOOF Cem and the Pacific Sunset Memorial Park Cem. The map illustrates the contemporary footprint of coastal communities like Dunes City and Westlake, alongside legacy locations such as Canary and Glenada, showing how modern infrastructure like the Florence Municipal Airport integrates with the region's natural geography.
