About this map

Bridgeview and Holland anchor this 2017 survey of Josephine County, Oregon, where the southern Illinois Valley transitions into steep mountain drainages. The East Fork Illinois River and its major tributaries, including Sucker Creek and McMullen Creek, define the local topography, carving deep gulches such as Peterson Gulch and Green Gulch. A network of rural routes and Bureau of Land Management (BLM) roads provides access to the surrounding hills, which rise toward landmarks like Lime Rock.

Cultural indicators of the area's development are evident in the naming of thoroughfares like White Schoolhouse Rd and Hays Cut Off Rd. The presence of the B Bar Ranch Airport in the northern portion of the quadrangle suggests the continued importance of private aviation for remote valley ranches. From the drainage of Althouse Creek to the high ridges of the Siskiyou National Forest, the map details the intricate hydrography and elevation that have shaped this community's identity for generations.
