2011 Map of Letz Creek

About this map

The Siuslaw River and Smith River headwaters define this drainage-rich portion of the Oregon Coast Range, where a dense network of logging and resource roads serves the timber-heavy landscape. Managed by the U.S. Geological Survey and incorporating data from the Bureau of Land Management, the map reveals a terrain carved by numerous named tributaries including Letz Creek, Tip Davis Creek, and Dead Ox Creek. Settlement is sparse, anchored by the King Ranch in the west and the Lorane Grange Cemetery in the northeast corner near Farman Creek Reservoir. This 2011 survey documents the complex access network of the modern era, featuring named routes like Siuslaw River Rd and Siuslaw Falls Rd that follow the natural contours of the river valleys through the steep, forested divides of Lane County.
