About this map

The Calapooya Divide marks the high northern boundary of this high-elevation Douglas County landscape, separating the drainage basins of the Willamette and Umpqua rivers. Dominated by the timberlands of the Umpqua National Forest, the terrain is defined by a series of prominent peaks and ridgelines including President Ridge, Chilcoot Ridge, and the Hipower Bluffs. These features frame a complex network of headwater streams that feed into larger arteries like Steamboat Creek and Canton Creek.

A dense system of forest infrastructure is visible, including the Canton Creek Rd and various Bureau of Land Management routes such as Lost Bucket Rd, which provide access to the remote interior. Notable high points like Chilcoot Mtn, Lemon Butte, and Johnson Butte overlook the deep valleys where Three Springs and numerous creeks like Fugowee Creek and Siwash Creek originate. The map documents the persistent boundaries and topographic character of this Cascades region in the 2020s.
