1985 Map of Winchester Bay

Further south, the environment transitions into a series of coastal freshwater bodies, including Lake Marie, Clear Lake, and Eel Lake, the latter preserved within W M Tugman State Park. The coastal infrastructure is anchored by the North Jetty and South Jetty, which protect the river entrance, while the timber and rail town of Reedsport sits upriver near Wades Flat. This mapping illustrates the complex intersection of federal conservation lands and working waterfronts during the late twentieth century.
