About this map

Port Orford sits at the southern edge of this coastal landscape, where the town's grid meets the shores of Garrison Lake and the northern reaches of N Fork Hubbard Cr. The map details a transition from the Pacific coastline into the dense, high-elevation terrain of the Siskiyou National Forest. The settlement of Sixes serves as a central point along the Sixes River, which winds through the valley between Madden Butte and Poverty Ridge.

Tracing the waterways reveals a network of drainages including the Elk River and Crystal Cr, alongside timber-related landmarks like Marsh Log Pond. High peaks such as Eightmile Prairie Mtn and Summit Mtn dominate the eastern interior, while the landscape is interconnected by a series of rural routes like Cape Blanco Rd and Sixes River Rd, reflecting the region's historical reliance on river valleys for transport and local industry.
