About this map

Siuslaw National Forest encompasses the vast majority of this landscape in Lincoln County, Oregon, defining a terrain of high ridges and deep drainage basins. The geography is anchored by prominent summits such as Stott Mountain and Saddle Bag Mtn, which overlook a complex network of waterways including the Salmon River and the North Fork Siletz River. Unlike more developed coastal regions, this area is characterized by its named clearings and canyons, such as Lost Prairie, Jeeter Prairie, and Box Canyon.

A network of forest and resource roads, including BLM Rd 12 and Nat For Dev Rd 1782, provides the primary access to these highlands. Significant landmarks like Diamond Peak and Rocky Point serve as key navigational points for those navigating the numerous creeks, such as Drift Creek and Slick Rock Creek, which carve through the forest. The map documents a landscape primarily dedicated to timber and conservation, where geographic naming conventions often reflect local wildlife and topography, as seen in Cougar Mtn and Elk Wallow.
