About this map

The Nehalem River valley serves as the focal point for this survey of the northern Oregon interior, where logging and conservation interests intersect. The settlement of Vinemaple and the nearby Vinemaple Bridge anchor the southern riverbanks, while the town of Jewell and the Jewell Cem sit further east along Fishhawk Creek. This landscape is heavily defined by the Clatsop State Forest and the Jewell Wildlife Management Area, illustrating a 1980s transition toward protected wildlands and managed timber resources.

Local history is preserved through markers like the W Humbug Cr Sch and the Grand Rapids (Site), suggesting earlier centers of activity that have since shifted. Topographical features such as Red Bluff Ridge and Boller Ridge separate the various drainages, including Little Humbug Creek and Beneke Creek, which feed the region's larger river systems. The inclusion of several Barrow Pit locations reflects the infrastructure needs of this forested terrain.
