1954 Map of Lacamas Creek

About this map

Hockinson and Proebstel serve as central hubs in this mid-century landscape, which is defined by a complex network of drainage systems and agricultural development. The presence of China Ditch and Big Ditch highlights a history of water management designed to transform the low-lying areas near Mill Plain and Fern Prairie. The terrain rises sharply to the east toward Livingston Mtn and Elkhorn Mtn, creating a varied environment where timbered slopes meet established valley settlements.
