Oregon: shape, counties and terrain

Oregon spans about 402 miles from east to west and 297 miles from north to south, with 95,997 square miles of land. Its outline is fairly compact: the state fills 80% of the box drawn around it on the map. The Census boundary file draws it as 6 separate land areas, only one of them larger than 100 square miles.

Oregon has 36 counties. The largest by land area is Harney County (10,134 sq mi) and the smallest is Multnomah County (431 sq mi). The capital, Salem, sits at 157 ft downtown (USGS).

Elevation runs from sea level along the Pacific Ocean to 11,247 ft (3,428 m) at Mount Hood in Clackamas- Hood River County, a range of 11,247 ft. The sampled average is about 3,490 ft.

On the relief map's elevation grid, under 1% of the state lies below 0 ft, 79% between 0 and 5,000 ft and 21% between 5,000 and 10,000 ft and under 1% above 10,000 ft. Split from south to north into thirds, the southern third averages 4,394 ft, the central third 3,489 ft and the northern third 2,013 ft, so the land is highest in the southern third and lowest in the northern third.

How teachers and students can use these maps

  • Blank map: label Salem, the capital, and the largest cities, then check them against the cities map. Older students can draw in rivers or mountain ranges from an atlas.
  • County map: find your own county among the 36. The labeled version works as an answer key; the blank one as a quiz.
  • Cities map: Salem to Pendleton is about 211 miles in a straight line. Measure it with the scale bar and see how close you get.
  • Elevation map: find Mount Hood (11,247 ft) and the coast, at sea level, and work out the difference: 11,247 ft. Then use the legend to estimate the elevation of your town and check it with our elevation tool.
  • Printing: each map has a US Letter PDF and an A4 PDF. The PDFs are vector files, so lines and labels stay sharp at any size. The outline maps use very little ink in black and white.
