Port Orford Heads                                                                                                                   museum diorama. scale 1/624.

The Cape Blanco Heritage Society commissioned a five-foot-by-five-foot diorama of the Port Orford Heads State Park - with elements of the U.S. Coast Guard Lifeboat Station as it was circa 1950, alongside present-day features such as the current trail system.  The model is featured as the centerpiece in the museum building (formerly the crew's quarters), and includes prototypical modeling of the 100-acre state park area and surrounding ocean, with scale scale structures.   The museum is open April-October, Thursday-Monday 10 am - 3:30 pm.   Click on photos below for an enlargement.  See additional photos including the moving and installation of this piece under the "News" tab above,  titled "Port Orford Heads".
