2020 Map of Triangle Lake

About this map

Triangle Lake and its smaller neighbor, Little Lake, dominate the central basin of this western Oregon survey. The settlement of Blachly serves as the primary hub for the surrounding timber and agricultural lands, located just north of the lakes along Lake Cr. This area is defined by its complex drainage network, where multiple water bodies including Swampy Cr, Druggs Cr, and Pope Cr feed into the central valley floor. Local history is anchored at the Blachly Cem, while the rugged surroundings are marked by prominent features like Bear Ridge, Elk Mtn, and Little Elk Mtn. The map reveals a dense system of logging and access roads, such as Horton Rd and Swamp Creek Rd, which provide access to the timber-rich slopes of the Siuslaw National Forest region. Genealogists and local historians can trace the intersection of early pioneer settlement sites with the natural landmarks like Little Lake Spring.
