2017 Map of Fourth of July Creek

About this map

Siskiyou National Forest lands dominate this part of Curry County, where the steep topography is defined by the drainage systems of the Winchuck River and its numerous tributaries. The central landscape is shaped by the E Fork Winchuck River and Fourth of July Cr, which carve through deep valleys separated by prominent heights like Wheeler Ridge and Bear Ridge. The map details a complex network of forest development roads, including Nat For Dev Rd 1107 and Winchuck River Rd, providing access to this timber-rich region. In the southeast, Packsaddle Mtn and Pack Saddle Gulch offer notable landmarks for those tracing the traditional place-names of the Oregon Coast Range. This survey documents the intersection of industrial forestry access and the natural water systems of the Pacific Northwest.
