2020 Map of Junction City

About this map

Junction City and northern Eugene anchor this Willamette Valley landscape, where the flat agricultural plains meet the winding course of the Willamette River. The river's complexity is on display through a series of braided channels and named features like Harpers Bend, Marshall Island, and Bells Shute Bar. This 2020 survey captures the transition from town grids to rural acreage, punctuated by a series of aviation facilities including Munson Airport, Strauch Field, and the large Mahlon Sweet Field. For genealogists and local historians, the presence of the Milliron Cem and Luper Cem provides specific points of interest among the network of farm-to-market roads. The Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad corridor cuts a straight line through the valley, highlighting the enduring importance of this transportation spine in Oregon's heartland.
