2014 Map of King Mountain

About this map

King Mountain and Quartzmill Peak dominate the high-elevation landscape where the borders of Douglas, Josephine, and Jackson counties converge. This 2014 survey captures a terrain defined by complex hydrography, with numerous water sources like Mud Springs, Onion Springs, and Pease Spring feeding into drainages such as Grave Cr and Quines Cr. The map reveals a dense network of forest and resource management routes, including King Mountain Rd, Quines Creek Rd, and Big Boulder Creek Rd, which provide access to topographical landmarks like Waggoner Gap and Green Mtn. This area's geography is further characterized by deep incisions like French Gulch and Jamison Gulch near the southern boundary, illustrating the traditional drainages that have historically shaped local land use and boundary definitions in this part of Oregon.
