2017 Map of Coos Mountain

About this map

Coos Mountain dominates the high ground of the Oregon Coast Range, serving as a primary drainage divide for two major river systems. This terrain defines the watershed between the north-flowing South Fork Coos River and the westward-winding N Fork Coquille River. The landscape is etched by a complex network of tributary streams, including Little N Fork Coquille River, Salmon Cr, and Rock Crusher Cr, which carve through the dense timberlands. Human presence is largely defined by the forest economy, evidenced by the high-elevation paths of Fork Ridge Rd and Coquille-Fairview Rd. These routes follow the natural topography to navigate between the drainages of Middle Cr and Hudson Cr, providing a detailed look at the resource-rich interior of Coos County.
