About this map

South Umpqua River frontage and the industrial infrastructure of Douglas County define this landscape, where the communities of Winston, Brockway, and Dillard converge. The importance of the timber industry is evident through the presence of large specialized water features such as the Pacific Plywood Corporation Log Pond, the Dillard Log Pond, and the Alsea Log Pond. These sites, situated near the riverbanks, illustrate the logistical reliance on water for wood processing and transport in the region.

Local heritage is anchored by several established landmarks, including the Martha Rice Bridge and the historic Civil Bend area. Genealogists can locate family sites at the Civil Bend Cem, Cox Cem, and Willis Creek Cem. The terrain rises sharply from the river valley toward prominent summits like Roberts Mtn, Hoover Hill, and Big Baldy, while smaller waterways like Lookingglass Creek and Willis Cr thread through the complex system of logging roads and BLM access routes.
