Explore Scotts Mills, Oregon, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Scotts Mills, Oregon. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Oregon or beyond.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Scotts Mills.
Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Scotts Mills occupies a verdant pocket of land defined by the persistent, rhythmic passage of Butte Creek as it carves through the earth. It lies 6.2 miles east-northeast of Silverton, OR (from Silverton, OR: bearing 65°T), and is situated 8.5 miles south-southwest of Molalla. The landscape here is defined by deep, forested ravines and the quiet expansion of farmland that gives way to the distant, hazy silhouette of the Coast Range on the western horizon. Within the immediate vicinity, City Park offers a modest space for stillness, where the air holds the damp, mossy scent of cedar and the cool breath of the nearby Evans Valley. Sunlight filters through the dense canopy in thin, pale shafts, illuminating the fine silt and smooth stones that line the banks of Butte Creek, a waterway that serves as the lifeblood of the local topography.
Scotts Mills retains the character of a pioneer settlement, its history rooted in the ingenuity of early grain and lumber milling that once harnessed the strength of the rushing water. While the roar of original industrial wheels has faded, the legacy of that labor remains present in the quiet, deliberate pace of daily life and the enduring structural bones of the architecture. The economy has shifted from the frenetic energy of early mills toward a subtle integration with the agricultural rhythms of the region, where orchards and quiet fields hold more weight than commerce. Travelers seeking the rush of water might venture toward the mist of Fall Creek Falls, but the essence of Scotts Mills is found in the stillness of its backroads, where the pulse of the environment remains slow, steady, and entirely its own.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
