About this map

Union Creek serves as a central point in this high-elevation landscape where the Rogue Wild and Scenic River carves through volcanic terrain. The map details a complex network of recreational and historic paths, including the Rogue Gorge Trl and various off-highway vehicle routes like the Union Creek (North) Ohv Trl. The geography is defined by prominent peaks such as Wolf Peak, Mt Stella, and Anderson Mtn, situated along the boundary between the Umpqua National Forest and the Rogue River National Forest.

A notable geological landmark, the Natural Bridge, appears along the river just south of the main settlement. The intersection of numerous creeks, such as Castle Creek and Whisky Creek, with the main river channel illustrates the drainage patterns of the Rogue River Range. This modern survey documents the contemporary management of the Rogue-Umpqua Divide Wilderness, showing the transition between protected wildlands and managed forest service areas.
