2020 Map of Union Creek

About this map

Union Creek sits at the heart of this forest-dominated landscape, serving as a primary point of human activity along the Upper Rogue River. The river's powerful course through the Rogue River National Forest has carved out remarkable geological formations, most notably the Rogue Gorge and the Natural Bridge, where the water ducks beneath ancient lava tubes. The surrounding terrain is defined by significant elevations such as Mt Stella, Wolf Peak, and Anderson Mtn, while the Rogue Umpqua Divide marks a high boundary in the northwest corner. This area serves as a junction for varied recreational uses, from the Golden Stairs Motorcycle trail to specialized paths like the Nordic Ohv and the Pipeline Snowmo Trail. The map details a complex network of forest roads and off-highway vehicle routes including Discovery Ohv and Hershberger Ohv, illustrating the modern management and accessibility of the Umpqua National Forest.
