2017 Map of Arch Cape

About this map

Cannon Beach and Tolovana Park anchor the northern coastline of this survey, where the Pacific shoreline meets the dense timberlands of the Coast Range. The map details a complex geological interface of offshore landmarks like Castle Rock and Gull Rock against prominent headlands such as Hug Point, Adair Point, and Cape Falcon. Interior access is defined by the Arch Cape Tunnel 2247 and a network of logging and access roads including Arch Cape Mill Rd and the Tolovana Mainline Rd, which wind through the elevations of Onion Peak and Angora Peak. The transition between Clatsop and Tillamook counties is marked just south of Round Mtn, overlooking the secluded Smuggler Cove and the dramatic sea cliffs of Devils Cauldron. Numerous coastal creeks, such as Arch Cape Cr and Short Sand Cr, drain the high ridges into the Pacific Ocean, illustrating the drainage patterns that shaped these seaside settlements.
