1983 Map of King Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

King Mountain and its surrounding peaks dominate this 1980s landscape at the intersection of Douglas, Jackson, and Josephine counties. The topography is defined by a dense network of watercourses, where Grave Creek serves as a central drainage fed by Big Boulder Creek and Starvout Creek. Evidence of industrial use is found near the heights, including multiple Borrow Pits and a Radio Facility near the peak. The high country features distinctive landmarks such as Onion Spring and Waggoner Gap, providing specific points of reference for those tracing historical land use or timber access routes. To the south, the terrain descends toward Six Prairie and Jamison Gulch, while the presence of State Highway 5 indicates the modern transportation corridor cutting through these mountains. This survey effectively documents the drainage patterns and peaks that define the rugged boundary of these three Southern Oregon counties.
