2017 Map of Yachats

About this map

The Yachats River meets the Pacific at the settlement of Yachats, a central point on this coastal survey where the Oregon shore transitions from residential pockets to the dense timber of the Siuslaw National Forest. The landscape is defined by the sharp rise of the coast range, with peaks like Blodgett Peak and Yachats Mtn standing watch over the shoreline. Natural coastal landmarks including Cape Perpetua, Devils Churn, and Cooks Chasm are clearly marked, illustrating the complex geology of the headlands. Inland, the map traces the intricate network of forest roads, such as Nat For Dev Rd 1045 and Eckman Creek Rd, which provide access to the ridges and saddles of the interior. Genealogists may find interest in the Carson Cem located along the river valley, while researchers can examine the boundaries of the Oregon Islands National Wildlife Refuge and the southern line between Lincoln and Lane counties.
