The Salmonberry Trail corridor follows the old Pacific Railway and Navigation Co. line.
It starts in Banks, cuts across remote areas of the Coast Range, follows the Salmonberry
River, then the Nehalem River to the coast, where it turns south to Tillamook.
The rail line was washed out by floods in 1991 and was rebuilt at a cost of $50 million.
It flooded again in 2007 and remains unusable, with twisted rails and ties strewn in
"a mess,".
This project is still in the planning stages so it will likely take several years
to turn this concept into reality. I'll be posting updates to this page as they
become available. If you remember, the
Banks-Vernonia Linear Trail was pretty
"primative" when I first started documenting it in 2010. It's now a mostly completed,
dandy hiking trail. Ditto for the
Crown Zellerbach Trail.
There's a trailhead of sorts by the Timber fire station.
