1985 Map of Lyons

Extensive public lands dominate the highlands, including Santiam State Forest and portions of Silver Falls State Park. The map documents a series of water features characteristic of the Cascades foothills, from Shellburg Falls and Lower Shellburg Falls to the various branches of Silver Creek, which carve deep drainages through the timber-rich terrain. For local historians, the inclusion of specific sites like Silver Creek Youth Camp and the John Neal Memorial Park provides a clear record of recreational and community development during this era.
