§ 02 — OVERVIEW
The Bureau of Land Management maintains a series of pastures along Oregon Highway 38 and the Umpqua River that are a year-round residence for a herd of 60-100 Roosevelt elk. Elk are visible almost every day of the year!
A main viewing area, with an interpretive kiosk and restrooms, offers visitors the chance to learn about the elk and the site’s history. Several pull-outs along the three miles of Highway 38 that border the viewing area offer excellent photo opportunities. Dean Creek is also a popular bird watching area, serving as a stop along the coastal migration route. Know Before You Go Open YEAR ROUND. Overnight camping is NOT ALLOWED. Universal Access restrooms: flush and vault restrooms are available. Point of Interest A full-grown bull elk can weigh over 1,000 pounds. They are strong, wild animals. Keep your distance and stay behind the fenced areas. Please do not feed the wildlife.
