1955 Map of Nehalem
USGS Topo · Published 1964About this map
The rugged coast of northern Oregon, where the Nehalem River meets the Pacific, is defined here by a network of small coastal settlements and timber-era infrastructure. The Southern Pacific railroad snakes along the coastline and inland through Nehalem Junction and Mohler, serving the industrial and logistical needs of the mid-20th century. Near the southern edge of the survey, the community of Bayocean sits on the fragile spit protecting Tillamook Bay, a location of significant interest given its historical struggle with coastal erosion.
