2017 Map of Prospect North

About this map

The Rogue River flows through the western edge of this territory, carving the distinctive Takelma Gorge as it moves south toward the town of Prospect. Much of the landscape is defined by the Rogue River National Forest, where a dense network of forest service roads and drainage systems crisscross the terrain. Water management is a central feature of the local geography, evidenced by the N Fork Diversion Reservoir and Red Blanket Reservoir, which collect flow from numerous tributaries like Mill Cr, Barr Cr, and Red Blanket Cr. For those researching local pioneers and settlers, the Aiken Family Plot is situated near the junction of several drainage basins in the southern portion of the sheet. This area reflects a mid-20th-century focus on timber management and hydraulic resources, with a complex system of fire roads and named ridges.
