2011 Map of Mount Emily

About this map

Siskiyou National Forest dominates the high ground of the Oregon coast in this 2011 survey, where the Chetco River and its North Fork carve deep through the coastal mountains. The map traces the rugged interface between the Pacific Ocean and the upland ridges, documenting isolated landmarks like Tamba Ranch and the serpentine paths of the Mount Emily Trail. Historically significant sites, including the Pioneer Cemetery and VanPelt Cemetery, remain preserved near the coastline, while the Winchuck River winds through the southern portion of the quadrangle toward the California border. Notable geological features like Boar Backbone and Gardner Ridge define the interior, while the shoreline is punctuated by prominent sea stacks such as McVay Rock and Camel Rock, highlighting the transition from riverine valleys to the open sea.
