2014 Map of Richter Mountain

About this map

Umpqua National Forest defines the rugged landscape of this section of the Southern Oregon Cascades. The terrain is marked by high ridgelines and significant elevation changes, from Callahan Ridge in the northwest to the prominent Richter Mountain in the south. These heights are separated by deep drainages such as Elk Cr and Anderson Cr, with travel corridors following the topography through points like Neuman Gap and Tombstone Gap. The map captures a moment in the modern management of these timberlands, showing an extensive network of forest development roads, including Nat For Dev Rd 3220 and Nat For Dev Rd 800, which provide access to interior points like Drew Lake and the high lookout at Diamond Rock. The transition between Douglas and Jackson Counties is traced across the southern peaks, where the landscape opens into Long Prairie.
