1955 Map of Fairdale

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Fairdale and the surrounding timberlands of the Northern Oregon Coast Range define this 1955 survey. The landscape is a network of ridges and watercourses, where the Tualatin River and North Fork Yamhill River begin their descent toward the Willamette Valley. The presence of Haskins Creek Reservoir and smaller bodies like Meadow Lake and Rainbow Lake highlight the area's role in local water management and recreation during the mid-century. Logging history is evident through numerous named sites such as Camp Five and Camp One, along with the curiously named Neverstill. High-altitude surveillance for fire management is noted by the Trask Mtn Lookout and High Heaven Lookout, which served as vital sentinel points for the surrounding forest. This map also traces the transition from the settlement at Cherry Grove into the deeper reaches of the Tillamook and Washington County lines.
