USGS Topo · Published 1927About this map
The Southern Pacific RR carves a vital corridor through the mountainous terrain of southern Oregon, connecting settlements from Riddle and Cornutt down to Merlin. This 1901–1902 survey reveals a landscape driven by mineral extraction and early timber management, with the southern reaches of the Umpqua National Forest occupying the eastern heights. The map serves as a detailed record for mining history, pinpointing numerous active sites such as the Star Mine, Lucky Queen, and Orofino Mine tucked into the gulches.
