About this map

Elkhead Mines and the nearby community of Elkhead define the central drainage of this 1987 survey, where resource extraction and timber-ready terrain intersect at the Douglas and Lane county line. The landscape is characterized by the prominent rises of Dickinson Mountain and Beth Moore Mountain, which channel numerous waterways including Elk Creek and Shingle Mill Creek. Small settlements like Bennet sit within the namesake Scotts Valley, while the eastern edge of the map opens into the distinct Shoestring Valley. This provisional edition captures a network of resource roads and quarries, illustrating the industrial footprint on the Pacific Northwest backcountry during the late twentieth century. Numerous family-named landmarks such as Adams Creek and Wilson Creek suggest the long-standing rural ties to these drainages.
