1943 Map of Keasey

USGS Topo · Published 1943

About this map

The Nehalem River snakes through this 1943 survey, carving a deep corridor for the timber economy of the northern Oregon Coast Range. This landscape is defined by the logistics of the wood products industry, where the Oregon American Lumber Company and the United Railways line provided the essential infrastructure for moving timber out of the hills. Named settlements like Keasey, Birkenfeld, and Mist serve as geographic anchors, while more ephemeral locations like Logging Camp and Sunset Camp reflect the transient nature of mid-century forestry operations. The map documents a rugged terrain of high peaks including Green Mtn Lookout and Rocky Point Lookout, which likely served as critical fire watch stations. From the small Winema Sch to the evocatively named Neverstill, the map captures the local identifiers of a community built around the rhythm of the river and the reach of the rail.
