About this map

The North Fork Coquille River and its numerous tributaries, including Middle Creek, define the settlement patterns of this corner of Coos County. Small communities like Fairview, McKinley, and Lee Valley are connected by a network of winding roads such as the Fairview-McKinley Rd and Lee Valley Rd. The presence of multiple crossing points, including the Fairview Bridge, Lone Pine Bridge, and Hervey Bridge, underscores the importance of the river system to local transport and access.

Family history is well-preserved through several dedicated sites, such as the Morris-Baker Cemetery near Blue Ridge and the Fox Bridge Cemetery at the southern edge of the quadrangle. Educational and recreational life is represented by the Pleasant Hill School and the Coos County Youth Camp, while the higher elevations of Hungry Mountain and Rink Peak provide a natural backdrop to the river valley's rural homesteads and prairies like Burton Prairie.
