About this map

Deadman Mountain rises as the central topographic anchor in this portion of the Umpqua National Forest, a landscape defined by its complex network of steep drainages and logging history. Mining activity is evident in the southern terrain, where the Umpqua Mine and Maude S Mine are situated along the lower slopes. The water system is particularly dense, with Deadman Creek, South Myrtle Creek, and the Middle Fork carving through the mountains.

Smaller geographic points like Cultus Lake and high ridges such as Smith Ridge provide specific landmarks for those tracing the history of resource extraction in Douglas County. The presence of a Helipond and multiple quarries highlights the logistical and industrial infrastructure required for forest management during the late twentieth century. Diverse water sources, including Johnnie Springs and Red Top Spring, further map the hydraulic character of this upland region.
