About this map

The Flournoy Valley and the valley of Lookingglass Creek dominate the landscape in this Douglas County survey, revealing a rural network of family-held lands and aviation history. Small private airstrips like the Flournoy Valley Airport and Lookingglass Airport suggest the importance of local flight in this pocket of the Oregon Coast Range. Historical transit routes are evident in the path of the Coos Bay Wagon Rd, a significant pioneer-era thoroughfare that once linked the inland valleys to the coast.

Water management is a defining feature of the terrain, with numerous small impoundments such as Doerner Cr Reservoir, Wylie Reservoir, and Smith Reservoir supporting local agriculture and ranching. The presence of Old Settlement Ln near Flournoy Creek points to early habitation sites now surrounded by the ridgelines of Reston Ridge and Sugar Pine Ridge. The settlement of Reston sits at the southwestern edge of the quadrangle, where Tenmile Creek flows through the hills.
