2020 Map of Sand Lake OE W

About this map

The dramatic promontory of Cape Lookout juts into the Pacific Ocean in this coastal survey of the Oregon shoreline. This map documents a unique offshore section of Tillamook County, defined largely by the maritime expanse and the prominent headland that has long served as a crucial navigation landmark for sailors along the Pacific Coast. The interior is divided by the Public Land Survey System grids of t2s r11w and t3s r11w, illustrating how terrestrial administrative boundaries extend into the coastal waters. The lack of inland development or road networks emphasizes the area's role as a natural maritime buffer, where the topographic focus remains strictly on the interface between the rocky cape and the open sea.
