About this map

Dellwood serves as the primary named settlement in this pocket of the Oregon Coast Range, where the drainage systems of the South Fork Coos River and the North Fork Coquille River converge. The landscape is defined by its complex network of seasonal and perennial streams, including Salmon Creek and Cox Creek, which carve through the high elevations of Coos Mountain. The drainage patterns here are significant, as they mark the divide between the Coos and Coquille river systems.

Industrial activity is noted by a Borrow Pit near Moon Creek, while the region's accessibility is represented by the rugged Rider 4WD trail. Land management is evident in the township and range lines marking the transition between T 25 S and T 26 S. From the Middle Fork Coquille River in the south to the winding Burma Creek in the north, this map documents a timber-rich interior prior to modern reforestation cycles.
