1956 Map of Heceta Head

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The Heceta Head Lighthouse stands as a primary landmark along the central Oregon coast, marking a dramatic landscape of sea caves and shifting sands. This mid-century survey captures the region as development began to touch the shoreline through the Coast Highway, connecting small coastal communities like Searose Beach and Roosevelt Beach. The interior is dominated by the dense timberlands of the Siuslaw National Forest, where high points such as Herman Peak and Fairview Mtn overlook a complex network of drainages including Tenmile Creek and Big Creek.
