About this map

The western outskirts of Medford and the historic community of Jacksonville define this landscape in the Rogue Valley during the early 21st century. The map illustrates a complex network of water management essential to the region's agriculture and forestry, including the Hopkins Canal, Phoenix Canal, and the Talent Middle Canal. These waterways feed several catchments such as the Minear Reservoir and Goodrich Reservoir.

Industrial and institutional sites are prominent, from the Timber Products Company Dam to the sprawling J Herbert Stone Nursery. Local history and genealogy are anchored by landmarks like the Griffin Creek Cemetery and Memory Gardens Cemetery. The terrain transitions from the developed valley floor near Central Point to the prominent heights of Johns Peak and Jacksonville Hill, with the winding path of Bear Creek marking the eastern boundary.
