1971 Map of Chapman

About this map

Bunker Hill dominates the northern terrain of this Columbia County survey, where the timbered ridges and deep creek drainages of the Oregon Coast Range meet the developing valley floors. The community of Chapman sits at the junction of the Pittsburg Road and Vernonia Road, serving as a focal point alongside nearby Spitzenberg. Further east, the landscape transitions toward the lowlands near Scappoose, where the Burlington Northern railroad corridor and local landmarks like Apple Valley and Sherman Reservoir indicate a more settled agricultural and industrial character.
