1986 Map of Langlois
USGS Topo · Published 1986About this map
The coastal landscapes of Langlois and Denmark are defined by a complex network of waterways and agricultural bogs along the Pacific. This mid-1980s provisional survey illustrates the unique transition from the Pacific Ocean to the inland dairy and cranberry lands, separated by the longitudinal flow of the New River. Specialized land use is evident in the numerous Cranberry Bogs and Storage Bins clustered near Floras Creek. The rugged terrain to the east is marked by prominent elevations like Morton Butte and Woodens Butte, providing a stark contrast to the low-lying marshes of the Oregon Islands National Wildlife Refuge Wilderness. Genealogists and local historians can pinpoint family-connected sites such as the Denmark Cem and the small residential cluster at Bethel, while the presence of several borrow pits and a gravel pit suggests the infrastructure needs of this rural Curry County corridor during the era.
