Historic Photos: Siuslaw National Forest Collection
The Siuslaw National Forest Digital Collection
Nearly 5,000 digital images of the Siuslaw National Forest are available to you through Oregon State University Libraries.
The images are part of the Siuslaw National Forest Digital Collection and include pictures dating back to the beginnings of the Siuslaw in 1908 to the present.
A highlight of the collection is photographs taken by Corydon Cronk during his time as an assistant ranger in 1910-1911.
The collection will be expanded as other historic information is converted into digital format.
