2020 Map of Saddle Mountain

About this map

Saddle Mtn dominates this portion of the Northern Oregon Coast Range, serving as a prominent landmark for the drainage systems that define the regional hydrology. The peak anchors a complex network of waterways, including the headwaters of the Lewis and Clark River and the Necanicum River, which flow through deep-cut valleys. The presence of Saddle Mtn St Park Rd and the CCC Rd indicates a long-standing history of public access and conservation efforts in these uplands. To the south and east, the terrain transitions into the basins of the Little N Fork Nehalem River and Beaver Cr, while Humbug Mtn and Flagpole Ridge stand as significant topographical barriers. This 2020 map documents a landscape defined by its river-and-ridge geography, where named features like Destruction Cr and Osgood Cr trace the intricate path of water from high peaks toward the coast.
