2011 Map of Baker Point

About this map

The Clatskanie River and its numerous tributaries, including the Little Clatskanie River and Carcus Creek, carve through this heavily forested landscape in Columbia County. This 2011 survey reveals a region defined by its timber and watershed history, where peaks like Baker Point and Mount Cedara overlook a dense network of logging and access roads. The presence of the Wilark Pioneer Cemetery near Kenusky Creek provides a vital link to the area's early settlement history, while the Meissner Lookout in the northeast corner highlights the long-standing importance of fire observation in these woods. Navigation through the drainage basins is facilitated by routes like Apiary-Market Rd and Pittsburg Rd, which connect remote homesteads and resource sites. Local landmarks such as the Fish Ponds and Titus Pond further illustrate the managed hydrology of this Pacific Northwest interior.
