2011 Map of Euchre Mountain

About this map

Siletz River navigation and the timbered heights of the Oregon Coast Range dominate this 2011 survey of Lincoln County. The landscape is defined by its dramatic elevation changes, from the peak of Euchre Mountain to the confined depths of Lower Gorge. Remote outposts and landmarks like Peck Cabin and Upper Farm point to the area's history of isolated homesteading and forestry management. The river's winding course is marked by distinct locations such as Powderhouse Hole and the Euchre Falls on a namesake tributary. Along the southern reaches, a network of mountain roads including Mill Creek Rd and Moonshine Park Rd provides access to the drainage basins of Mill Creek and Cerine Creek. This map details a region where the geography of ridges, such as Wildcat Ridge, and creek systems like Coon Creek and Thompson Creek dictate the patterns of human presence and movement.
