About this map

The Smith River Falls anchor this portion of Douglas County, where the main waterway curves sharply around a landform known simply as The Island. This 2011 survey documents a landscape defined by an intricate drainage system of the North Fork Smith River and West Fork Smith River, feeding into the primary Smith River corridor. The geography is characterized by high ridges like Wasson Ridge and numerous drainages including Johnson Creek and Wasson Creek.

A complex network of timber and access roads, including the Lower Smith River Rd and various Bureau of Land Management routes like BLM 15 3 Rd, provides the primary infrastructure for this forested terrain. These roads trace the contours of the land, connecting the various creek basins such as Spencer Creek and Vincent Creek, illustrating the modern management of these remote coastal range watersheds.
