2011 Map of Yellow Butte

About this map

The Umpqua River cuts through the southwestern corner of this landscape, a region defined by a dense network of ridges and drainages managed by the Bureau of Land Management. The terrain is marked by prominent elevations such as Yellow Butte and Prince Albert, while the hydrology is shaped by numerous seasonal and perennial flows including Brush Creek and Yellow Creek. This 2011 survey reveals an extensive network of forestry and access roads, including BLM RD 23-8-8.0 and BLM 23 8 15 1 RD, which navigate the complex topography between Broken Back Ridge and Dead Horse Ridge. The map illustrates a commercial timber landscape where industrial access routes intersect with named natural features like Rice Flat and Snail Canyon, providing a precise record of the road systems and geographic nomenclature within Douglas County during the early 21st century.
