1955 Map of Cannon Beach
USGS Topo · Published 1963About this map
The Tillamook Rock Lighthouse stands offshore as a sentinel for the rugged Clatsop County coastline, which in the mid-1950s was defined by its mix of growing coastal resorts and dense timberlands. The Oregon Coast Highway serves as the primary artery connecting shoreline communities like Seaside, Cannon Beach, and Arch Cape. In Seaside, the Lewis and Clark Salt Cairn Historic Marker and Evergreen Cemetery provide localized points of historical interest, while the inland areas show a landscape managed for forestry and conservation. Significant public lands such as Ecola State Park and Oswald D West State Park preserve the dramatic geography of Tillamook Head and Cape Falcon. The map captures the inland network of the Necanicum River and its numerous forks, supporting facilities like the Fish Hatchery and the Necanicum Guard Sta.
