About this map

The Siletz River carves a winding path through this corner of Lincoln County, defining the local geography and transportation patterns. A series of riverfront access points, including Mowrey Landing, Melco Landing, Mack Landing, and Morgan Landing, highlight the importance of the waterway for both navigation and recreation. These landings serve as historical touchpoints for a landscape shaped by the river's deep bends and the surrounding timberland.

Upland features such as Cannery Mountain and Little Euchre Mountain overlook the drainage basins of Jaybird Creek and Euchre Creek. To the south, the terrain levels into Camas Prairie near the Ojala Bridge, where a network of rural routes like Huhtala Rd and Ojalla Rd connect small settlements like The Maples. The map illustrates a contemporary balance between the active river system and the forest roads that navigate the complex topography of the Oregon Coast Range.
