About this map

The lumber industry in the central Coast Range is the centerpiece of this 1941 Army Corps of Engineers study. The company town of Valsetz sits at the edge of Valsetz Lake, serving as a hub for the Cobbs-Mitchell Lumber Co and the nearby Willamette Valley Lumber Company operations. This area, located on the border of Polk and Lincoln counties, shows an intricate network of waterways including the North Fork Siletz River and Rickreall Creek that defined the early logging geography of the region.
