About this map

Bone Mountain and its surrounding heights dominate this corner of Douglas County, where the terrain is defined by a dense network of watercourses feeding into the Middle Fork Coquille River. The landscape is a complex system of ridges and drainages, including Skull Ridge and Sixmile Ridge, which partition the numerous creeks like Slater Creek and Twelvemile Creek.

Remote upland features such as Long Prairie and Fox Pond sit far from the primary thoroughfares, reached only by forest routes like Signal Tree Rd and Upper Rock Creek Rd. Evidence of the area's geological character and water management is visible at Bone Mountain Pond and the prominent Ketchin Butte. This survey highlights the region's character as a timber and watershed resource at the start of the 2010s, tracing the winding paths of Lake Creek through the steep coastal range topography.
