About this map

Starvout and the surrounding drainage of Starvout Creek define this pocket of the Southern Oregon mountains during the early 21st century. The landscape is heavily structured by a complex network of forest management routes, including Burma Rd, Koehler Rd, and numerous Bureau of Land Management roads such as BLM 31-4-19.0 Rd. These access points weave through the drainages of Cow Creek and Whitehorse Creek, serving the timber-rich slopes of Patrick Mountain and Cedar Springs Mountain.

The presence of uniquely named water bodies like Fizzledout Creek, Hogum Creek, and No Name Creek suggests a history of prospecting or early ranching efforts in these steep canyons. To the north and west, the terrain is cut by Benjamin Gulch and Booth Gulch, while larger watercourses like Grave Creek and Bull Run drain the southern reaches near Green Mountain. This survey provides a precise look at the modern forest road infrastructure used to navigate the high-elevation divide between Jackson and Douglas counties.
