About this map

The Siskiyou National Forest dominates this 1990 survey, where the convergence of Coos, Douglas, and Curry counties meets in a landscape of high peaks and deep drainages. Mining activity is evident through the presence of the Fuller Mine and Bolivar Mine, located near the headwaters of Fuller Creek. These small-scale operations sit within a complex network of wilderness areas, including the Bolivar Wilderness and the Rogue River Wilderness.

Hydrography defines the region's character, as the South Fork Coquille River and the West Fork Cow Creek carve through the terrain. Notable high points like Mount Bolivar and Diamond Peak overlook a terrain interspersed with openings such as Big Prairie and Walker Prairie. The map also details forest recreation sites, including the Cold Spring Campground, providing a look at the balance of extraction and conservation in this part of the Oregon Coast Range during the late twentieth century.
