1954 Map of Sandy
USGS Topo · Published 1956About this map
Sandy River meanders through the eastern portion of this mid-1950s landscape, carved by deep ravines and the winding courses of Deep Creek and Tickle Creek. The geography reveals a transition from the agricultural plateaus of the west to the more broken terrain approaching the Mount Hood foothills. Small rural centers such as Orient, Cottrell, and Pleasant Home serve as focal points for the surrounding farmsteads, while the community of Boring sits at the southwestern edge. The map captures the area just as the Mt Hood Loop Highway was solidifying its role as a primary artery through Sandy, connecting the Willamette Valley to the Cascades.
