2023 Map of Leaburg

About this map

The McKenzie River corridor defines the geography of this quadrangle, where the river valley supports the primary settlements of Leaburg and Deerhorn. A significant engineering feature is the Eugene Water and Electric Board Canal, which parallels the river north of Leaburg Dr, signaling the region's historical and ongoing reliance on hydroelectric and water management infrastructure. The landscape shifts quickly from the populated riverbank to the steep rising terrain of the Cascades foothills, marked by summits like Miles Peak and an intricate network of drainage systems including Sturdy Creek and Norton Creek. Genealogists and local historians can locate Greenwood Cem near the junction of Greenwood Dr and Fish Hatchery Rd. This modern survey documents the persistent rural character of Lane County, where forest roads like Hills Creek Rd wind through township boundaries such as t18s r1w and t18s r1e.
