About this map

Camas Valley occupies a prominent basin in this 2014 survey, where the Middle Fork Coquille River and its various tributaries, including Jim Belieu Cr and Kirkendall Br, define the local drainage. The area is characterized by numerous small-scale water management features like Combs Reservoir, Thrush Reservoir, and Barnhart Reservoir, which are concentrated near the settlement. For genealogists and local historians, the landscape is punctuated by several family-named burial sites, including Patterson Cem, Martindale Cem, and Murray Cem, offering clear locations for ancestral research.

Transportation through the valley is anchored by Or-42, connecting the basin to the surrounding Douglas County highlands. The terrain rises sharply away from the valley floor toward landmarks such as Camas Mtn and Bennett Rock. This map details a rural landscape where forestry and ranching rely on a dense network of Bureau of Land Management roads, such as BLM-29-8-9.1, providing access into Brewster Canyon and the timbered reaches above Little Muley Cr.
