About this map

The South Santiam River winds through the southern portion of this Linn County landscape, serving as a focal point for local industry and infrastructure. Near the river's edge, the Lebanon Dam and Hamilton Creek School sit close to the small settlement of Berlin. This area is defined by a transition from flat agricultural land in the west to the more complex topography of Golden Valley and the prominent Ridgeway Butte in the south.

Transport and transit patterns are clearly visible through the Southern Pacific rail line and the Pacific Highway, which connect northern hamlets like Griggs and Brewster. Historical researchers will find significant detail in the placement of rural landmarks such as the Providence Cemetery and Bellinger Cemetery, alongside numerous drainages like Beaver Creek and the namesake Onehorse Slough that drain the foothills.
