About this map

Indian Head and the rising peaks of Twin Buttes anchor this portion of the Willamette Valley’s eastern edge. The landscape is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including the meandering Little Muddy Cr and Spoon Cr, which drain the low-lying agricultural lands. This territory is marked by the presence of family-linked landmarks and small rural aviation sites such as Lafferty Field and Daniels Field LLC, suggesting a modern rural economy that maintains its traditional geographic footprint.

For those tracing local ancestry, the map preserves the locations of several burial grounds, including Blan Cem, Wigle Cem, and Harris Cem. The terrain transitions from the flat drainage basins of Tub Run into the more prominent relief of Dinwiddie Valley and Bond Butte. These features, alongside the Permaner Log Pond near the northern boundary, reflect the historical integration of timber and agriculture that shaped this part of Linn County.
