2017 Map of Bacona

About this map

Dutch Canyon and the high ridges of the Northern Oregon Coast Range define this landscape along the boundary of Washington and Columbia counties. The terrain is marked by a complex network of forestry and access roads, including the Crown Zellerbach Trail and various mainline routes like the Gunners Lake Mainline. These paths trace the elevations between Bunker Hill and Long Mtn, reflecting the area's history of industrial timber management and resource extraction. Significant water features such as the E Fork Nehalem River and Clatskanie River originate in these highlands, while smaller points of interest like Gunners Lakes and Mansfield Pond are scattered throughout the drainage basins. Evidence of 20th-century public works remains visible through the alignment of the Bacona CCC Rd, a local link to the Civilian Conservation Corps era.
