About this map

Jordan Valley sits along the northern reaches of this Marion County landscape, where the foothills begin their steep ascent toward the Cascades. The geography is defined by a dense network of drainages, most notably Thomas Creek, which wind through the timbered heights and valleys. To the south, the terrain rises significantly toward Snow Peak, a prominent landmark that overlooks the headwaters of numerous streams including Bilyeu Cr and the Roaring River.

High-altitude clearings like Indian Prairie and its namesake Indian Prairie Lake offer distinct geographical markers amidst the deep ravines and ridges. The map traces the winding paths of local thoroughfares such as Thomas Creek Dr and E McCully Mountain Rd, which provide access to this timber-rich region. From the shadowy depths of Devils Den to the various named forks of Ella Cr, the sheet provides a comprehensive look at the hydrology and relief of the area.
