About this map

Lane Mountain and Buck Peak define the high elevations of this Douglas County landscape during the late 1980s. The terrain is deeply carved by a network of drainage systems, including South Fork Deer Creek and North Myrtle Creek. Significant infrastructure for both communication and recreation is documented, from the Lane Radio Facility perched on the heights to the Covered Bridge and Cavitt Creek Park found near the water.

Industry and public land management are evident through the inclusion of a Quarry and various borrow pits, while large portions of the map fall within the Umpqua National Forest. The presence of the Cavitt Creek Falls Recreation Area and Cavitt Shelter highlights the area's importance as a site for outdoor activity and conservation. This survey captures the intersection of forestry operations and recreational development in the Oregon Cascades.
