Summary edit

Description

The Marys Peak Area of Critical Environmental Concern (ACEC) encompasses 310 square miles of forested, agricultural and urban lands along the east side of the Coast Range in western Oregon. The watershed reaches to the highest point in the Coast Range, Marys Peak, at about 4,200 feet elevation. Several headwater streams from the Coast Range merge into the Marys River, which flows into the Willamette River at the town of Corvallis at 250 feet elevation.

These parcels are in Benton County and approximately 9 miles southwest of Philomath. The majority of the land surrounding these parcels is in the Siuslaw National Forest.

Directions: From Philomath, take Oregon Highway 34 southwest approximately 10 miles to Marys Peak Road (BLM Road 13-7-2; Forest Service Road 30). Turn northwest onto the paved Marys Peak Road. Follow the paved road to the summit (approximately 5 miles on Forest Service Road 30, then 2 miles on Forest Service Road 3010). This road forms the southwest boundary of one of the ACEC parcels commencing at section 29's eastern boundary and terminating at another of the ACEC parcels which is near the Marys Peak summit. The other two parcels of this ACEC are accessible by hiking from this road along the west and east section lines of Section 20.
