1957 Map of Yaquina NE

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Newport anchors this mid-century coastal survey, situated between the Pacific Ocean and the sheltered waters of Yaquina Bay. The map documents a maritime landscape defined by its inlets and tidal sloughs, including King Slough and McCaffery Slough, which branch off the Yaquina River. Along the shore, a series of state parks and recreational landmarks appear, from the geologically distinct Devils Punch Bowl at Otter Rock down to the Coast Guard Station and Lighthouse at Yaquina Head. Moving inland, the terrain transitions into the dense timberlands of the Siuslaw National Forest. Small riverine settlements like Oysterville and Winant are visible on the eastern bank of the river, while the growth of Newport Heights and the infrastructure of the Newport Airport reflect the post-war expansion of the Lincoln County coast.
