2023 Map of Coos Bay

About this map

Coos Bay and its industrial waterfront define this coastal Oregon landscape, where the confluence of the Coos River and several major sloughs created a complex maritime geography. The primary urban center is surrounded by satellite communities like Englewood, Bunker Hill, and Eastside, each established along the winding waterways of Isthmus Slough and Catching Slough. These tidal channels, once critical for the regional timber and shipping economy, are flanked by high ground including Telegraph Hill and The Buttes. Local history is preserved in numerous burial grounds across the quadrangle, from the Odd Fellows Cem in the north to the Pioneer Cem near Sumner. The interior terrain is marked by a dense network of gulches and creeks, such as Boatman Gulch and Noble Creek, illustrating the transition from the busy shoreline of the Marshfield Range Channel to the forested ridges of the Coast Range.
