1961 Map of Sauvie Island

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Sauvie Island emerges as a complex hydraulic landscape where the Columbia River and Multnomah Channel diverge. This early 1960s environment, with revisions through the mid-1970s, depicts a rural island interior defined by the winding Gilbert River and the expansive Sturgeon Lake. The map details the intricate drainage system of sloughs and holes, including Wagonwheel Hole and Ash Slough, which support the island’s agricultural and natural character.
