2011 Map of Selma

About this map

Selma and the surrounding Josephine County terrain are defined by the convergence of several major creek systems and mountain ridges. The southern portion of the area is anchored by Lake Selmac, created by the Lake Selmac Dam on McMullin Creek, while the northern section is marked by the small settlement of Wonder near the Wonder International Airport. This landscape reveals a pattern of rural settlement and private infrastructure, including the Backachers Ranch airstrip and various water management features like the Tall Timber Reservoir and its associated Tall Timber Dam. Family and local history is anchored at the Selma Cemetery and Deer Creek Cemetery, while the topography rises steeply from the Draper Valley floor toward Hayes Hill Summit and Mooney Mountain. The map also traces numerous Bureau of Land Management routes, such as BLM 38-8-21.5 Rd, indicating the area's relationship with federal forest lands.
