1988 Map of Waterloo

About this map

The South Santiam River winds through this mid-valley landscape, punctuated by several historic riverside settlements including Waterloo and Fairview. To the west, the town of Sodaville sits at the base of the upland terrain, while the heights of Scott Mountain and Marks Ridge rise to the south and east. This late 1980s provisional survey shows a mix of small-town development and rural industry, with numerous quarries and a Borrow Pit scattered near the riverbanks. Local community hubs like Mountain Home, Liberty, and Greenville serve as navigational anchors in a region defined by agricultural fields and the wooded slopes surrounding Binegar Butte. The map also captures recreation and utility features, ranging from the Picnic Area at the river's bend to a Golf Course and a prominent Radio Tower in the higher elevations.
