2024 Map of Greenleaf

About this map

The Siuslaw River winds through the central portion of this Lane County landscape, defining a network of steep drainages and timbered ridges. Near the community of Greenleaf, the confluence of Lake Creek and McVey Creek highlights the valley's reliance on these primary watercourses for early transport and settlement. Much of the western and northern terrain is managed as the Siuslaw National Forest, where high points like Bailey Ridge and Walker Point overlook a complex watershed including San Antone Creek and Schoolhouse Creek. Historians and researchers can trace the path of Old Stagecoach Rd as it follows the river's curves toward the south, passing the Linslaw Cem near the junction with Richardson Upriver Rd. This modern survey documents the persistent topography of the Coast Range, where family names are still preserved in labels like Johnston Creek and Nelson Creek.
