2017 Map of Shevlin Park

About this map

Shevlin Park serves as a gateway between the urban edge of Bend and the sprawling wilderness of the Deschutes National Forest. This landscape illustrates the modern interface of residential growth in communities like Tetherow and Deschutes River Woods with a complex network of recreational and historic corridors. The presence of the Tumalo Feed Canal and the Columbia Southern Rd highlights the region's historical reliance on irrigation and timber transport. High-altitude meadows such as Pernot Meadow and Fremont Meadow break the forested slopes near Seventh Mountain, while drainage systems like Bull Spring Cr and Tumalo Creek provide the essential water resources that defined early settlement patterns in Deschutes County.
