Fort Stevens

Fort Stevens SP https://oregonstateparks.org/index.cfm?do=parkPage.dsp_parkPage&parkId=129 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fort_Stevens_(Oregon) Fort Stevens was an American military installation that guarded the mouth of the Columbia River in the state of Oregon. Built near the end of the American Civil War, it was named for a slain Civil War general and former Washington Territory governor, Isaac Stevens. Much of Fort Stevens is preserved within Fort Stevens State Park. The park includes camping, beach access, swimming at Coffenbury Lake, trails, and a military history museum.

Reprinted wit “A Triangle of Fire” Battery Russell was a later addition to a large military installation built in the 19th century to defend the mouth of the Columbia River. Fort Stevens, which dates back to the Civil War, protected the Oregon side of the river, while Fort Columbia and Fort Canby stood guard on the Washington side. Together, these three forts comprised the Harbor Defenses of the Columbia. Battery Russell was constructed between 1903 and 1904 by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for the U.S. Army Coast Artillery Corps. It was one of nine concrete gun batteries (emplacements for cannon or heavy artillery) built at Fort Stevens to conceal and protect Brigadier General mounted guns from enemy ships. David A. Russell Battery Russell was named for Brigadier General David A. Russell, who served with the U.S. 4th Infantry Regiment in the Oregon Territory and commanded Fort Yamhill before he was killed in action during the Civil War. Battery Russell was built separate from the other gun batteries at Fort Stevens clustered along the banks of the Columbia River. It faced the ocean to the south, expanding the network of artillery and the “triangle of fire.” It was armed with two 10-inch “disappearing guns” whose barrels could retract from view into the gun pits h permission. to provide cover for soldiers while they reloaded. Each gun was manned by a team of 35 men. A well-trained gun crew could fire a 600-pound shell once every minute with an effective range of eight miles. Fire Control Hill and Squirrelsville Firing the guns at Battery Russell required gathering data from the stations located at either end of each base line. The two stations reported the target’s angle from their position to the plotting room, enabling the soldiers to use triangulation to aim. A number of base lines for guns on both sides of the Columbia River ended at Fire Control Hill, directly above Battery Russell. Throughout the 1930s, Battery Russell was the practice battery for a coast artillery regiment with the Oregon National Guard. In September 1940, the unit was federalized; after receiving new training at nearby Camp Clatsop (now Camp Rilea), the regiment was moved back to Fort Stevens in February 1941. But it was only after Japan attacked Pearl Harbor on December 7th that Battery Russell was manned on a regular basis. Because it was some two miles from the main fort, primitive housing was hastily constructed for the gun crews in the wooded area behind the dune. This area was known as “Squirrelsville” to the soldiers who were rotated in and out every few days. Soldiers reloading a 10″ disappearing rifle from behind the parapet, or wall, of the battery. Overlapping arcs representing the effective range of the guns on both sides of the Columbia River. Attack! At about 11:30 p.m. on the night of June 21, 1942, an imperial Japanese Navy submarine bypassed the entrance of the Columbia River. It was the I-25, a member of the I-class of long-range submarines dispatched to go after military targets and naval vessels along the western coast of the U.S. The sub surfaced just south of Fort Stevens about 10 miles offshore and began firing shells from its 5.5-inch deck gun in the direction of the fort. Soldiers scrambled out of bed and raced to their posts. They located the submarine by its gun flashes, but were told to hold their fire. It’s unclear why the order was given—per

From 1897 to 1904, the fort experienced significant development, including the construction of eight concrete gun batteries. Although the guns have been removed, nearly all the batteries remain and are the primary features of this tour. 34 1 10 9 31 37 MUSEUM 8 ia Ri v er Lake D Guide to Historic Military Site & Recreation Trails City of Hammond Pacifi c Drive Original Earthwork (site) Battery Freeman (site) Native American Longhouse (site) Historic Military Cemetery To Washington Trestle Bay South Jetty Clatsop Spit Columbia River Hammond 101 Observation Platform Astoria Fort Stevens State Park Columbia River Fort Stevens State Park Wildlife Viewing Bunker Historic Area Military Museum Batteries Hammond 30 Swash Lake Wildlife Viewing Deck Warrenton 202 101 Y ou BUS sR iv er Wreck of the Trail “Peter Iredale” Riv er To Seaside Fort Stevens State Park Guide & Historic Military Site Coffenbury Lake Warrenton Ridge Road ark Historical Park ng Pacific Ocean i s an d Cl Lewis Clark 101 and National Le w Pacific Ocean Day-Use Area 101 Welcome to Fort Stevens The Fort Stevens Military Reservation guarded the mouth of the Columbia River from the Civil War through World War II.

Hiking Trails Scenic views of the water abound on the two-mile trail around Coffenbury Lake. A mile-long trail runs between the north end of the lake and Battery Russell along a ridge created by dune action many years ago, then connects with a nature trail east of the campground. This trail can also be accessed from the dump station. If you look carefully at the forest, you can see how it is layered, with the tall trees on top, small trees and shrubs next, and small flowering plants on the ground.

Small trees and shrubs include Pacific Red Elder, Oregon Crabapple, Coast Rhododendron, Red Huckleberry, Salmonberry and Salal. The ground cover is patched with Horsetail, Skunk Cabbage, and a variety of ferns such as licorice, Guardhouse sword, bracken, deer and wood. Watch for uprooted trees exposing broad, shallow root systems. This is caused by high water levels in the ground, which prevent the roots from going very deep. Because of shallow roots, large trees are toppled by storms. These decaying trees return to the soil and supply nutrients for other plants. You are not walking alone on this trail; deer like to walk here, too. Civil War Rodman Cannon Other wild animals that inhabit the park, include waterfowl, ravens, squirrels, possum, beaver

P L A C E S Graveyard of the Pacific T he Columbia River Bar, where the Pacific Ocean and Columbia River meet, can be a navigational nightmare. Since 1792, approximately 2,000 ships have sunk in this area, earning it the nickname “Graveyard of the Pacific.” Water, weather, and geography work together at times to make the bar treacherous. The Columbia River flows into the Pacific through a narrow channel. As the river water surges toward the ocean, it slows down, dropping sand and silt. That sand and silt form a fan-shaped sandbar that extends more than six miles into the ocean. Columbia River Bar 1 Fort Stevens State Park Off U.S. Hwy. 101, 10 miles west of Astoria 100 Peter Iredale Road, Hammond OR 97121 Info: 1-800-551-6949 or www.oregonstateparks.org Park: 503-861-1671 Sometimes, strong river discharges collide with heavy Pacific waves, making passage extremely dangerous for all vessels. The bar’s weather and waves are notoriously violent and quick to change. Before jetties and dredging, 23 feet was the maximum draft for ships crossing the bar. To provide greater safety, engineers have deepened the limit to 40 feet. This “safe” limit is still affected by wind and wave conditions on the bar.

Fire Control Hill and Squirrelville All told, approximately nine shells were fired at Fort Stevens. A monument now marks the site where one of the shells landed along DeLaura Beach Lane, creating a 5-foot crater. Although there were no casualties, and the shelling caused minimal damage to property, it alarmed local residents about the possibility of further attacks or even an invasion. The dunes south of Battery Russell marked the highest point at Fort Stevens, with a clear view of the ocean and the river. Thus, this was the perfect location to scan the battlefield for enemy vessels. Called Fire Control Hill, this is where orders were coordinated for all guns at Fort Stevens as well as Washington’s Fort Canby and Fort Columbia.

This brochure is an introduction to some of the more common fungi found in the park. Please use a reliable field guide to identify mushrooms you intend to eat. Remember: Don’t eat it if you don’t know what it is. King Bolete (Boletus edulis) Russula Species The varieties of Russula mushrooms number in the hundreds. They range in color from bright red to green to white. Some are edible and some are poisonous. The species is common and can be identified by their stems, which break in half like a piece of chalk. Lobster Mushroom The King Bolete is a very large mushroom that grows in the fall after the first heavy rains. A bulbous fungus with a sponge-like layer on the underside of the cap, the King Bolete is considered a choice edible. Sold in stores under its Italian name, Porcini. (Hypomyces lactifluorum) Oyster Mushroom Fly Amanita (Pleurotus ostreatus) Oyster mushrooms grow on dead trees (typically alders) year-round. The mushrooms vary in color from white to brown and are the shape of an oyster shell. The oyster mushroom is delicious. The Lobster mushroom is a fascinating fungus that grows on other mushrooms. Lobsters usually attack the shortstemmed Russula. The Lobster mushroom is most abundant in late summer and early fall and is delicious when still crisp — a definite improvement over the Russula host. (Amanita muscaria) Fly Amanita is beautiful but poisonous, and should never be eaten. The Fly Amanita is one of the most well-known species because of its bright red color and white spots. White Matsutake (Tricholoma magnivelare) The White Matsutake is found occasionally in late fall in the Fort Stevens forests. Also called the pine mushroom, it typically grows beneath shore pine trees. This mushroom is highly prized in Japan and Asia, where it garners high prices in markets and restaurants. The Matsutake smell is unforgettable; a spicy odor described as a cross between cinnamon candy and dirty socks! Prince (Agaricus augustus) The Prince is considered to be a delicious edible. Identified by its golden cap and almond-like smell, the Prince can be found from late summer through fall. They are rare, and if you are lucky enough to find a patch, you are in for a treat. Prince (Agaricus augustus)

A 5-acre donation in 1922 — setting aside a special place for everyone — became Oregon’s first official state park. From 1922 to 1989, Oregon’s state park system grew within the Oregon Department of Transportation and its predecessor agencies. Oregon Parks and Recreation officially became an independent agency in 1990 with much fanfare and public engagement. Today, the state park system comprises 254 park properties and more than 100,000 acres. In 2022, we invite you to join us in celebrating this milestone. It’s a year to reflect on the past 100 years and look to the future as we work to preserve this legacy for the next generation.

She and her husband loaded all they could in a covered wagon and set out across the plains for Oregon. They took up a land claim that included several scenic, shaded acres along the Luckiamute River, just south of Monmouth. There, they raised family, farmed, and, in Sarah’s case, lived to celebrate her 100th birthday. Sarah marked this milestone in the early 1920s with a momentous gift—not one she received, but one she gave. She donated several acres of the family’s original land claim to the State of Oregon for use as a park, a place we know today as the Sarah Helmic

725 Summer St. NE, Suite C Salem, OR 97301 800-551-6949 oregonstateparks.org Oregon’s Sentinels Experience the Past Year-Round Recreation O ided by interpretive displays, historical accounts and a little imagination, you can learn what life was like for the workers who lit the way for mariners navigating Oregon’s perilous coastline. A Many of Oregon’s lighthouses double as excellent wildlife viewing areas. They are great places to spot sea birds, seals and migrating Gray whales. regon’s coastal lighthouses are visible links to the past—towering monuments to Oregon’s maritime heritage and to the hardworking people that kept the lighthouse beacons lit. Although unoccupied since the arrival of modern technology, these classic structures stand as a testament to the history of Oregon’s rugged coast. Most of Oregon’s lighthouses were designed and built by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers between 1870 and 1896. They were erected Coquille River Lighthouse on prominent headlands or near major estuaries to support commercial fishing and shipping along the Oregon coast. The lighthouses were originally managed by the former U.S. Lighthouse Board, with the U.S. Coast Guard taking over stewardship duties in 1939. After installing automated beacons in the 1960s, the Coast Guard began transferring its lighthouse holdings to other government agencies. All nine of Oregon’s surviving lighthouse stations have been added to the National Register of Historic Places. They are visited by more than 2.5 million people each year. If you’re touring lighthouses, check out (or stay at!) a nearby state park. See the map on the reverse. Climb to lantern or tower watch rooms and experience the panoramic sights once enjoyed by the light tenders from their perches high on the cliffs. Hear the sounds of seabirds, wind and waves that accompanied their isolation as they worked through the night to prevent ships from running aground on the rocks.

Its exposure to fierce storm waves gave rise to its nickname–“Terrible Tilly.” Commissioned in 1881 to guide ships entering the Columbia River, it was replaced by a whistle buoy in 1957. At one time, it was used as a columbarium, a storage place for ashes of the deceased. There is no public access to Tillamook. Astoria Seaside Tillamook Head Tillamook Rock Cape Meares Lighthouse Cannon Beach Cape Falcon This lighthouse stands 217 feet above the ocean, yet its 38-foot tower is the shortest on the Oregon coast. First illuminated in 1890, it was decommissioned in 1963. Visitors to the tower can view the original 1890 Fresnel lens. Nearby trails lead to views of sea bird nesting sites, sea lions and migrating whales. The lighthouse is open daily 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. May through September. Hours extend to 6 p.m. on weekends during June, July and August. Admission and tours are free. For more information call Cape Lookout State Park at 503-842-3182.

Hidden beneath the waves Oregon’s 362-mile shoreline is more than just sandy beaches and rocky headlands. Retreating tides reveal some of the most diverse coastal ecosystems: tidepools. The organisms that live here are resilient ocean residents. They battle strong currents, water temperature changes and a lack of food and oxygen. Many tidepool inhabitants work together to survive. Oregon’s tidepools attract thousands of curious human visitors each year. Exploring tidepools can be a fun way to spend an afternoon, but certain precautions must be taken to ensure the resident creatures (and you) remain safe. Tips for visiting a rocky intertidal area Oregon’s Rocky Intertidal Areas • Know the rules before you go. Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife regulations protect tidepool animals. Check the Oregon sport fishing regulations (free at most stores selling sporting goods) for rules about collecting animals. • Visit the tidepools at least one hour before low tide. Start with the tidepools closest to the ocean and work your way back with the incoming tide. Bring a tide table too; look for them at a state park or local business. • Tides of zero feet and lower are best for visiting tidepools. Tides up to two feet high can still provide good viewing when the ocean is calm. • Travel slowly and carefully. Rocks and marine algae can be slippery. Also be careful around marine plants like seaweed. Many animals hide under ocean plants to avoid the hot sun and predators. • Always stay on marked trails. Many tidepools are located near unstable headlands and bluffs. • Always keep one eye on the ocean. Exploring a tidepool means you’ll be near ocean waves. Make sure an incoming wave doesn’t sneak up on you. If a big wave heads your way, lie flat on the rocks and hold on tight! • Expect to get wet. Wear appropriate clothing. If you get soaked, dry off soon. Evening temperatures can drop quickly on the coast, putting you at risk of hypothermia. • Look at, in, under and around. Tidepool creatures hide in creative places. After looking at animals under rocks and seaweed, re-cover them to prevent drying by the air and sun. • Touching or picking up animals is OK, but be gentle. Please return any animal you pick up to the exact spot you found it. • Never pull or pry an animal from a rock. Animals in the tidepools stick to rocks because of the waves and strong currents that wash against them. • Bring your binoculars. Harbor seal pups often rest on rocks and beach areas while their mothers feed offshore. Seabirds also use rocks for nesting and rearing their young. Please enjoy these animals from at least a 50-foot distance. Tidepools are alive! Please leave plants and animals just as you found them. State parks are nature preserves, where all living things are protected for others to enjoy. oregonstateparks.org Printed on recycled paper All information or fees subject to change without notice.

Black Oystercatcher Tidepools are divided into several zones. The zones are classified based on wave action, shoreline features and exposure during tidal periods. The organisms that live in each zone are dependent on a number of factors: water temperature, wave action, variation in salinity (saltiness), exposure to light and how much water is present. The conditions have to be just right for an organism to be comfortable in each zone. Some organisms are hardier than others and are able to live in multiple zones. Part of the fun of exploring tidepools is discovering a plant or animal where you least expected it to be! Spray zone: This area extends from the highest reach of spray and storm waves to the average height of the high tides. It is usually dry, meaning relatively few types of organisms can live here. High tide zone: This zone includes the area from the average high tide to just below the average sea level. It is a highly saline (salty) environment and experiences higher temperatures than other zones. Mid-tide zone: This zone extends from just below average sea level to the upper lim

W e know that Oregon’s 362 miles of shoreline and beaches are a magnet for happy dogs and their people. Dogs are welcome at (almost) all times and places on Oregon’s beaches. But please keep in mind that all dogs, even well-behaved ones, can be a threat to birds and wildlife. Some beaches are part of protected nesting grounds of the western snowy plover. During its spring and summer nesting season (March 15-Sept. 15), certain recreation activities may be restricted or prohibited. The Bird The western snowy plover is a tiny shorebird that lives and breeds along some west coast beaches from Washington to southern California. It is a threatened species under the federal government’s Endangered Species Act (ESA). Plovers nest in dry open sand, in tiny, shallow scrapes that are very well camouflaged. Not only are nests easy to miss (or step on), but the bird will abandon its eggs if repeatedly disturbed by activities it considers a threat—activities we may see as harmless, like walking a dog, throwing a ball and flying a kite. For more info, go to bit.ly/wsplover The Law Oregon State Parks is legally responsible for managing recreation on Oregon’s ocean shore. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) oversees the ESA and thus the status of the western snowy plover. What is a management area? Management areas are stretches of beach that are either known to be occupied by breeding plovers, or places where their presence is significant and the habitat attractive. Not all management areas have recreation restrictions. What does this mean for beachgoers? It means that visitors need to watch for special signs or fences during nesting season and follow the rules. Generally, where plovers are nesting, dogs, vehicles, bicycles, camping and fires are prohibited. Pedestrians and equestrians need to stay on wet sand. Potential nesting areas may call for dogs to be leashed and driving to be curtailed. Beach Behavior We Love • Walk around birds instead of through their flocks. • Leash your dogs before they chase birds. • Respect restricted areas set aside for endangered or nesting species. • Stay away from birds and marine mammals that look sick or unable to get away from humans. Western Snowy Plover North Coast Beaches Places to Play with your Dog • Always clean up after your dog. • Always keep your dog on a leash or under voice control.

Oregon Coast Whale Watching W hale watching is one of the most popular activities on the coast, enjoyed by tens of thousands of visitors per year. Oregon has more than two dozen excellent whale watching spots on the coast; many are in or near state parks. When is the best time to see whales? Park staff are ready to answer your questions and help you spot Gray whales at the Whale Watching Center in Depoe Bay. Perched on the seawall with expansive ocean views, the center is a perfect spot to see whales. Gray whales are the most commonly sighted whales on the coast. Their seasonal migration patterns bring more than 20,000 of them past the coast each year. In the winter, from mid-December through mid-January, the whales travel south to the warm lagoons of Baja Mexico. Spring watching begins with a surge in late March as the gray whales travel north to Alaska. Whales are northbound through May. About 200 Gray whales remain in Oregon’s coastal waters every year. Summer and fall you may see them feeding closer to shore. The central coast is a hot-spot for whales from May through October. Whale Watch Week Oregon State Parks celebrates the migrations twice per year with Whale Watch Week during late December and late March. Volunteers are stationed at more than 20 of the best whale watching sites along the coast, ready to help visitors spot whales and offer fun facts about the marine mammals. For Whale Watch Week dates and locations, visit whalespoken.org. Hours: Daily, 10am – 4pm (call ahead for winter hours) Address: 119 SW Hwy. 101, Depoe Bay Information: 541-765-3304 Be a volunteer The Whale Watching Spoken Here program places volunteers at great whale watching sites during the two official whale watch weeks. Volunteers help visitors see and learn about migrating and resident Gray whales. Are whales your passion, too? Visit whalespoken.org to sign up. oregonstateparks.org Whale Watch Week, Dec. 2018.

If they have been down for 5 minutes they usually blow 5 times when they surface to replenish their oxygen supply. The blow, or spout, shoots nearly 12 feet high and expels 400 liters of air in a single blast. The whales take a few breaths at the surface then dive again. If they are frightened they can stay down for 30 minutes, hiding on the bottom or traveling great distances. The Breach The Spyhop Whales are intelligent and curious, and are often seen “spyhopping,” or lifting their heads above the surface of the water. They like to rise out of the water to get a better sense of their surroundings. During the summer, Gray whales have been known to spyhop regularly, especially when local tour boats are near. Perhaps this means the whales enjoy watching us as much as we enjoy watching them? 20 seconds Diving Pattern Swimming Pattern Seaside Cannon Beach The Best Whale Watching Sites The Dive Other Species Humpback whales are the second most common whale on the coast; the best time to spot them is August and September. Orcas, also known as killer whales, can also be sighted. Look for them April - June.

This helps propel the whale downward at a steep angle to the bottom, where they feed on zooplankton and amphipods. After the flukes disappear under the water, the turbulence of the dive will cause a circle of smooth water, known as a fluke-print. The ultimate in whale sightings is a breach: a whale launches itself out of the water in a spectacular show of power and grace. Scientists aren’t sure why whales breach. Possibly they do it to remove parasites, communicate with each other or maybe it’s just for fun. Gray whales aren’t known for breaching nearly as often as
