| Notes | This article gives a concise summary of Baldwin's work on the area in the 1940s. It includes a hand-drawn map. There is an interesting speculation about a shift in the mouth of the Yaquina River. "The former mouth of the Yaquina River probably lies somewhat south of its present mouth beneath the dune area where evidence is buried. At present, the dunes have been encroaching northward and driving the river against the resistant Astoria sandstone along the north bank," (p.79) |
