1945 Map of Roman Nose Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1945

About this map

The Siuslaw River and Smith River systems dominate this mid-century topographic survey of the coastal mountains, tracing the complex drainages of North Sister Creek and South Sister Creek. During the 1940s, this landscape was a working timber and ranching environment within the Siuslaw National Forest. The map documents a network of isolated homesteads and specific locales like Hess Ranch, Damewoods Place, and Argue, which reflect the area's early settlement patterns. Higher elevations are marked by critical infrastructure of the era, such as the Roman Nose Mtn Lookout and the Twin Sisters Guard Sta. Transportation is defined by the winding course of the Southern Pacific railroad in the north and various mountain trails. Education for these remote communities centered on small facilities like Alma Sch and Panther Creek Sch, providing a clear record of local social geography before major modern development.
