2023 Map of Springfield

About this map

The confluence of the McKenzie River and several smaller tributaries defines the landscape around Springfield in Lane County. This area shows a complex network of water features, from Irving Slough to the Middle Fork Willamette River and Coast Fork Willamette River, which meet south of the city center near Mt Risgah. The map reveals a suburban and rural layout that blends residential expansion in Thurston with older agricultural and industrial footprints. Genealogists will find significant detail in the numerous burial grounds scattered throughout the valley, including the Vernon Pioneer Cem, Stafford Cem, and the Wallace Pioneer Cem located near the southern boundary. To the southeast, the Jasper Ridge Airstrip and the settlement of Jasper mark the transition toward the foothills, while landmarks like Vitus Butte provide distinct topographic reference points in an area shaped by its proximity to the Willamette's primary forks.
