2014 Map of Oak Point

About this map

Oak Point sits at a historic navigation point on the Columbia River, where the river's width is punctuated by Crims Island and the Gull Island Turn. This map documents a complex aquatic landscape of sloughs and channels, including Bradbury Slough and John Slough, which define the low-lying Marshland Division on the Oregon side. The presence of Port Westward and its associated Port Westward Spur highlights the industrial maritime activity required to navigate these shifting waters. Inland, the terrain rises sharply toward Bunker Hill, where a network of logging and local roads like Bunker Hill Rd and Spruce Creek Rd weave through the drainages of Abernathy Creek and Germany Creek. For local historians, several family-named burial sites are mapped, such as Grasseth Cem and Stewart Hill Cem, alongside small riverfront settlements like Eagle Cliff.
