Josephine County elevation and terrain tools
Southern Oregon • County seat: Grants Pass
Josephine County lies in the Klamath Mountains, with Grants Pass on the Rogue River surrounded by steep, forested ridges. The Illinois Valley runs south toward the California border, and the land rises west into the rugged Siskiyou backcountry.
