1954 Map of Cape Ferrelo

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The Chetco River meets the Pacific Ocean at the southern edge of this mid-century survey, anchoring the growing community of Brookings and the adjacent settlement of Harbor. This coastal corridor is defined by a succession of protected landscapes, most notably the expansive Samuel H Boardman State Park, which preserves the dramatic interface of headlands and sea stacks. Inland, the terrain rises sharply into the Siskiyou National Forest, a region of steep ridges and deep drainages like Thomas Creek and Mayfield Creek. The map documents the localized development around Carpenterville and the coastal clusters at Whalehead and Cape Ferrelo. Notable landmarks along the surf line include the distinctive Mack Arch and Goat Island, providing a detailed look at the Curry County coastline before modern expansion reshaped the access points along the bluff.
