About this map

The South Umpqua River carves through the central portion of the Umpqua National Forest, defining the hydrological and topographical character of this Douglas County landscape. High points such as Clayton Point, Smith Ridge, and the distinctively named Hob Knob overlook a dense network of drainages including Dumont Creek, West Creek, and Radford Creek. The presence of Zinc Creek and Boulder Creek points toward the mineral and timber interests that have historically shaped access to these high elevations.

A series of specialized Forest Service trails, such as the Nfst-2929700 Trl, navigate the steep terrain between the river valley and the ridges. Significant water features like Campbell Falls and the junction of Hutchinson Creek reflect the area's complex natural drainage system. This modern survey illustrates the current management of public lands, where primitive access routes and named landmarks remain vital for forestry and back-country recreation.
