1998 Map of Acker Rock

About this map

Umpqua National Forest defines this drainage basin in Douglas County, where the South Umpqua River carves a deep valley fed by numerous tributaries like Boulder Creek and Quartz Creek. The 1998 revision highlights a landscape shaped by both geological features and Forest Service infrastructure, most notably the South Umpqua Falls Campground situated near the prominent South Umpqua Falls. High-elevation landmarks such as Flagstone Peak, Acker Rock, and Coyote Point provide clear orientation points across the timbered ridges. The presence of several Quarry sites and a network of Forest Service roads indicates the ongoing role of resource management and industrial access within the forest. Unique named locations like Andraieff Meadows and the whimsical Times Square Rock offer specific targets for local history research and backcountry exploration.
