About this map

The Coquille River meanders across the northern portion of this landscape, carving a wide valley floor before the terrain rises sharply toward the south. High points such as Bill Peak and Lampa Mtn dominate the topography, interspersed with a dense network of drainages including Randleman Cr, Bear Cr, and Hancock Cr. This modern survey illustrates the persistent rural character of Coos County, where life and transit follow the natural contours of the coastal range.

Genealogists and local historians will find value in the placement of Bear Creek Cem and Lampa Creek Cem, which mark early settlement nodes. The road network, featuring routes like Bear Creek Rd and the Myrtle Point-Lampa Mtn Rd, connects these isolated upland cemeteries with the valley floor. Notable landmarks such as Grigsby Rock and Coal Cr suggest the geologic and economic history of the region.
