About this map

Onion Mountain anchors this portion of the Siskiyou National Forest in southwestern Oregon, where the landscape is defined by an intricate network of drainages and named gulches. The northeastern corner is bounded by the Rogue River, while the interior terrain is marked by significant hydrological features including Taylor Creek Falls and numerous local water sources such as Annie Spring, Rattlesnake Spring, and Root Spring.

Logging and forest management infrastructure is evident through the extensive system of development roads, such as Nat For Dev Rd 640 and Nat For Dev Rd 056. The map captures a transition from wild forest lands to more settled areas in the east, indicated by the presence of Shan Creek Rd, Limpy Creek Rd, and the residential layout along Round Prairie Rd near Pollard Gulch. This 2014 survey serves as a detailed record of land use and topography before subsequent changes in the forest landscape.
