1984 Map of Mowrey Landing

About this map

The Siletz River winds through this coastal Oregon landscape, defining a corridor of small river landings and agricultural clearings within the Siuslaw National Forest. In the mid-1980s, the river served as a central artery for the community, marked by numerous small access points like Melco Landing, Mack Landing, Morgan Landing, and Mowrey Landing. The presence of the Reed Creek Grange and the open expanse of Camas Prairie suggest a durable history of local gathering and farming along the river benches, even as timber and topography dominate the surrounding terrain.
