1955 Map of Svensen

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Columbia River shoreline dynamics and a complex estuarine network define this mid-century look at Clatsop County. The tidal landscape of Cathlamet Bay is punctuated by numerous named islands, including Karlson Island, Marsh Island, and Woody Island, many showing levees and drainage patterns typical of early riverfront development. Transport and logistics are anchored by the Spokane Portland and Seattle railroad corridor, which links small riverside communities like Knappa and Svensen to the wider region.
