About this map

Wilhoit sits at the heart of this landscape where the Clackamas and Marion county lines meet amidst the drainage of the Molalla River. The area is notably defined by several small, family-oriented burial sites, including the Callahan Family Cem, the Dickey-Family Cem, and the specific landmark of the Mrs Eliza Jane Gray Grave. These markers, alongside the Molalla Memorial Cem and Sawtell Cem, indicate a long-settled rural community with deep roots in the timbered foothills.

The terrain is dissected by numerous waterways such as Butte Creek, Beaver Creek, and Teasel Creek, the latter of which feeds the Teasel Cr Reservoir. Moving toward the high ground, the map details Missouri Ridge and High Hill, reflecting the transition from the alluvial flats of Dickey Prairie into the more complex topography of the Cascade foothills. The road network, including S Sawtell Rd and S Wilhoit Rd, provides a clear view of how these remote homesteads and resources were interconnected in the early 21st century.
