2011 Map of Coos Bay

About this map

Coos Bay and its surrounding water-bound communities are defined by a complex network of sloughs and channels that snake through the coastal landscape. In the northern reaches, the Coos River splits into the Cooston Channel and the main Marshfield Channel, framing industrial and residential zones like Eastside and Englewood. The presence of several historic burial grounds, including the Independent Order of Odd Fellows Cemetery near Telegraph Hill and the Sumner Pioneer Cemetery to the southeast, reflects the deep-rooted settlement history of this maritime region. Further south, the landscape transitions into more rural outposts such as Libby, Millington, and Delmar, which are linked by winding roads like Old Wagon Rd and Coos Sumner Ln. This map highlights how transportation relied heavily on crossings like the Chandler Bridge and the Coos City Bridge to navigate the pervasive tidal waters of Isthmus Slough and Catching Slough.
