About this map

Hawthorne sits at the confluence of several small drainages in this upland region of Douglas County, where the landscape is defined by a dense network of ridges and creeks. The terrain is structured by prominent elevations such as Timothy Ridge, Taylor Ridge, and the distinctively named Gobblers Knob. The drainage system is particularly intricate, with Calapooya Creek and its many tributaries, including North Fork Calapooya Creek and South Fork Calapooya Creek, carving through the timbered heights.

Access to this area is facilitated by local routes like Nonpareil Rd and Hinkle Creek Rd, alongside various Bureau of Land Management roads that penetrate the interior. For those tracing local landmarks or water sources, Bear Wallow Spring and Yellow Butte provide specific points of reference within a landscape dominated by dozens of named waterways, from Buzzard Roost Creek to the long course of Hinkle Creek.
