2014 Map of Rogue River

About this map

The Rogue River flows through the heart of this landscape, marking a central corridor for transport and irrigation in southwestern Oregon. The settlement of Rogue River sits near the confluence of Evans Creek, with the Gold Hill Irrigation District Canal and Evans Cr Lateral weaving through the valley to support local agriculture. The terrain rises sharply away from the water to landmarks like Fielder Mtn and Starvation Heights, while the Josephine Co Jackson Co line bisects the western reaches near Old Baldy. For those researching local heritage, the map identifies the Woodville Cem and Foots Cem near the small community of Foots Creek. Numerous gulches and hollows, such as Sugarpine Gulch and Owl Hollow, define the drainage patterns feeding into the main river system alongside smaller impoundments like Smith Reservoir and McCollum Reservoir.
