2023 Map of Walterville

About this map

The McKenzie River corridor serves as the central artery of this landscape, defining the layout of rural communities like Walterville and Cedar Flat. The hydrological engineering of the early twentieth century is clearly visible through the Walterville Canal and Walterville Reservoir, which divert water from the main river channel to support local utilities and irrigation. The transition from the river valley to higher ground is marked by prominent landforms such as Camp Creek Ridge and numerous drainages like Wallace Creek and Osborn Creek. For those exploring local family histories, the Camp Creek Cem provides a specific point of genealogical interest near Upper Camp Creek Rd, while the network of forest roads and secondary routes like Hendricks Bridge Rd illustrates the modern connectivity of this timber and river-focused region.
