NOVEMBER 2018 Lane County parks are safe, respectful and inclusive places free of hate and discrimination. All park visitors are welcome. Sea to Summit: Creating the Future of Lane County Parks Parks and Open Space Master Plan Final Plan November 2018 Prepared by: 815 SW 2nd Avenue, Suite 200 | Portland, OR 97204 503.297.1005 | www.migcom.com Foreword Lane County is a special place – abounding with natural beauty and countless opportunities to connect with the wonder of the outdoors. We are fortunate to live and play in a county with an incredible variety of landscapes stretching from the beaches of the Oregon Coast, through the prairies of the Willamette Valley, to the forests of the Cascades. Exploring these landscapes through our Lane County parks is essential to the rich quality of life we enjoy. The Parks Master Plan is a 20‐year vision for the future of our parks. It was created through extensive public involvement and represents diverse, countywide values from residents for recreation, tourism, natural resource protection, economic development, and historical and cultural resource preservation. We are extraordinarily thankful for the countless hours of dedicated work that our volunteer advisors, staff and consultants have invested to create this robust and aspirational plan for sustaining and improving our parks. Our parks and natural areas are essential for our health, our environment and our continued economic vitality. With the adoption of the Parks Master Plan, we recognize the challenges inherent in implementing this vision and the collaborative investments that will be necessary for success.

  • Notes on the Bohemia Mining District, Oregon
    NOTES ON THE BOHEMIA MINING DISTRICT, OREGON. By DONALD FRANCIS MACDONALD. INTRODUCTION. The Bohemia mining district is in Lane and Douglas counties, west-central Oregon. It lies on Calapooya Mountain, in the western foothills of the Cascade Range. The district is about 30 miles south­ east of Cottage Grove, a small town on the Southern Pacific Railroad. The Oregon and Southeastern Railroad runs from Cottage Grove to Disston, within 12 miles of the mines, which are reached by stage. In August, 1908, the writer made a short stay in this district and incidentally to otl}er work visited some of the larger mineral proper­ ties. For some of the data presented• herein he is indebted to Mr. J. S. Diller, of the United States Geological Survey, who made a reconnaissance of the region in 1898,a and for many courtesies to Messrs. L. D. Ryan, F. J. Hard, W. W. Warner, and other mining men of the district. PHYSIOGRAPHY AND GENERAL GEOLOGY. The relief of the district is pronounced. Several peaks are more than 6,000 feet high, and the elevation of the lowest valleys is less than 2,000 feet. This bold relief is the result of mountain glaciation and stream ero&ion. The luxuriant vegetation due to the humid climate has somewhat masked the geologic features of the region. Great forests clothe the mountain slopes and the region is notable for its timber value. The rocks of the district are andesitic lavas and tuft's of Tertiary age, which are cut by dacite porphyry and probably by basalt.
