1955 Map of Ivers Peak

About this map

Golden and Silver Falls State Park centers a landscape defined by the deep canyons of the Oregon Coast Range during the mid-1950s. The map illustrates a region driven by natural resource management and conservation, notably featuring the Coos River Fish Hatchery and the Tioga Guard Station. The drainage patterns are intricate, with the South Fork Coos River winding through the center and the West Fork Millicoma River cutting through the northwest corner. Settlement is sparse, represented primarily by specialized outposts like Farris Camp and Old Tioga Camp. The presence of Millicoma Myrtle Grove State Park highlights the preservation of unique local timber, while the terrain rises sharply toward prominent landmarks such as Ivers Peak and Coquille Mountain.
