1985 Map of Garibaldi

About this map

Bayocean Peninsula serves as a narrow protective barrier between the Pacific Ocean and Tillamook Bay, most notably containing the Bayocean (Site). This location represents a significant historical point on the Oregon coast where a once-thriving resort community was lost to erosion, leaving only a geographic footprint by the mid-1980s. To the east, the timber-heavy slopes of the Tillamook State Forest descend toward the bay, where maritime and industrial life centers around Garibaldi and the Tillamook Bay Coast Guard Sta. The map documents a coastline defined by both natural preservation and managed resources, with the Oregon Islands National Wilderness Refuge protecting offshore rocks while the Miami River and Jacoby Creek feed into the tidal flats of the interior bay near Bay City and Hobsonville.
