2017 Map of Rasler Creek

About this map

Eden Ridge dominates the southern landscape of this Oregon terrain, where the northern reaches of the Siskiyou National Forest meet a dense network of watercourses. The map reveals an intricate drainage system defined by Myrtle Creek, Rasler Creek, and Pheasant Creek, carving through the high elevations of Coos County. This 2017 survey reflects a landscape managed for both timber and conservation, crisscrossed by a grid of Forest Service and access roads like Cole Creek Road and Rock Creek Road. Unlike the valley floors, the geography here is defined by steep contour lines and naming conventions that reflect the local ecology, such as Slide Creek and Cabin Creek. The distribution of National Forest Development Roads across the ridges illustrates the modern infrastructure used to navigate this remote timberland.
