Alsea Bay and its surrounding coastal settlements define this early twentieth-century survey of the Oregon shoreline. The town of Waldport serves as the primary hub at the bay's mouth, while smaller landings like Nice and Bay View are situated along the inner shores. This era precedes modern coastal highway developments, as evidenced by the Tidal Road hugging the beach and the Cummins Trail traversing the southern ridges. Inland, the Siuslaw National Forest covers much of the high ground, punctuated by local landmarks like the Alder Grove School and Yachats Mtn. Along the southern edge of the sheet, the terrain rises sharply toward Cape Perpetua, marking a significant natural barrier where the Lincoln Co Lane Co boundary line is established between Cape Creek and Cummins Creek.
