1984 Map of The Peninsula

About this map

The Wilson River and Trask River define this deeply etched section of the Tillamook State Forest in the mid-1980s. This survey records the complex hydrology of the Coast Range, centered on the dramatic river bend at The Peninsula. Human activity in the region is closely tied to the water and forest resources, evidenced by the Trask River State Fish Hatchery and numerous creek-side features like The Dam Hole and Stones Camp. High elevation points including Ginger Peak, Gold Peak, and Edwards Butte rise above a dense network of drainages such as Edwards Creek and North Fork Trask River. The map highlights the infrastructure of the era, from the Gaging Station Cable Crossing to the landmark Mills Bridge and the small settlement at Fish Corner.
