1955 Map of Birkenfeld

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The Nehalem River winds through this mid-1950s landscape of the Oregon Coast Range, a region defined by its timber industry and complex topography. Small settlements such as Birkenfeld and Mist serve as anchors in the north, while the presence of Camp McGregor and the Buster Camp (Site) highlight the area's history of logging operations. Traces of previous infrastructure are visible in the Old Railroad Grade and the Vesper Sch (Aban'd), marking shifts in the local community as the road network evolved. The southern portion of the map transitions into the Sunset Highway State Park, where the Sunset Highway provides a modern transit corridor alongside the headwaters of numerous creeks including Rock Creek and Wolf Creek. The map also records specialized industrial sites like the Timber Substation and the Sterling Guard Sta, reflecting the management of these vast forested lands.
