About this map

The Tualatin River and its tributaries define this agricultural and timber landscape west of the Portland metropolitan area. The town of Gaston serves as a central hub, flanked by the Wapato Lake Bed to the east and the timber operations at Stimson Mill to the west. Industrial and logistical footprints are visible through the Stimson Millpond and the Goodin Creek Airport, while the area's rural character is maintained by smaller settlements like Cherry Grove, Seghers, and Cove Orchard.

Water management and recreation are prominent features, with the expansive Henry Hagg Lake in the northwest and various smaller catchments including Graham Reservoir, Havens Reservoir, and Earnest Reservoir. Genealogical interest is anchored by the Mount Olive Lutheran Cemetery and the Gaston Post Office, while the terrain itself reveals distinct geographies like Scoggins Valley and Williams Canyon that have shaped local transport and land use.
