1984 Map of Blaine

About this map

The Nestucca River winds through the heart of this coastal mountain landscape, where the small settlement of Blaine serves as a primary point of reference. This mid-1980s survey illustrates a region defined by managed timberlands, split between the Tillamook State Forest and the Siuslaw National Forest. The presence of Detrick Ranch and a Quarry suggests the local reliance on agricultural and extractive land use amidst the steep drainage basins of Fawcett Creek and Beaver Creek. High points such as Hardscrabble Mtn, Grindstone Mtn, and Camelback Bluff dominate the topography, providing a detailed look at the watershed divides that separate the Trask and Nestucca systems. For genealogists and local historians, the map records the specific placement of rural residences and named peaks like Square Top and High Peak during the late twentieth century.
