1987 Map of Dodson Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Dodson Butte rises as a prominent landmark in this drainage-heavy landscape of Douglas County, mapped during the late 1980s. The area is defined by the convergence of numerous named waterways, most notably North Myrtle Creek and South Myrtle Creek, which carve deep valleys through the timbered terrain. This map reveals a landscape primarily dedicated to resource extraction and local recreation, evidenced by the Frozen Creek Mine and the North Myrtle Creek Park. Local history is embedded in the nomenclature of the land, from the descriptive School Hollow to the utilitarian Borrow Pit. A dense network of smaller tributaries like Big Lick Creek, Bilger Creek, and Slide Creek illustrates the complex hydrology of this part of the Oregon Coast Range before more modern developments altered these remote watersheds.
