| Umpqua National Forest is a primal landscape of razorback ridges and lush temperate rain forest teeming with blackberry bushes, alders, and salmonberry perfect for an escape from the trappings of modern life. This wild swath of forest, half of it old growth, encompasses 1,600 square miles of southwestern Oregon, which makes it larger than Luxembourg. Hikers can wander timbered valleys of Douglas fir, old-growth ponderosa, and groves of oak that separate sentinels like the 9,182-foot Mount Thielsen and the 8,363-foot Mount Bailey. |
