About this map

Cape Sebastian dominates this coastal stretch of the Pacific Ocean, where the rugged topography of Curry County meets the sea. The landscape is defined by massive sea stacks and offshore features such as Hunters Island, Black Rock, and the distinctive Cave Rock Arch. Inland, the settlement of Pistol River serves as the primary hub, situated near the mouth of its namesake waterway.

Timber and local industry footprints are visible through the Evans Log Ponds to the north and the Pistol River Log Pond further south. Historical and genealogical interest is centered around the Pistol River Cemetery and the Pistol River Post Office, which anchor the small community. A network of local routes like Carpenterville Rd and North Bank Pistol River Rd provide access through the complex drainage basins of Hunter Creek and Myers Creek.
