The Stimson Lumber Company Railroad winds through the northern hills of this 1941 survey, serving the Stimson Lumber Camp and a large Sawmill in a landscape dominated by timber and agriculture. Central to the region, the town of Gaston sits near the headwaters of the Tualatin River, while the southern corridor follows the Southern Pacific line through the farming communities of Yamhill, Carlton, and Dundee. This era reveals a dense network of local education, including the Laurelwood Academy and over twenty rural schoolhouses such as Pioneer Sch and White Cloud Sch. The topography transitions from the alluvial plains of Wapato Creek to the prominent Chehalem Mountains, where Bald Peak and Ribbon Ridge overlook the renowned Red Hills of Dundee.
