2020 Map of Sunset Spring

About this map

Sunset Spring marks a focal point in the remote upper reaches of the northern Coast Range, where the drainage divides of Clatsop County and Tillamook County meet. This 2020 landscape is defined by an intricate network of industrial forestry roads, including the Rock Creek Mainline, Ginger Creek Mainline, and Quartz Creek Mainline. These routes follow the steep topography carved by the N Fork Salmonberry River and the many forks of Rock Creek. High points like Dog Thief Point and Green Mountain offer vantage points over a terrain dominated by timber management and watershed protection. The presence of the Eastside Grade and Sterling Ranch Rd suggests the continued importance of land access in this heavily timbered region, providing a modern look at the evolving infrastructure of the Oregon backcountry.
