Upper Umpqua is an extinct Athabaskan language formerly spoken along the south fork of the Umpqua River in west-central Oregon in the vicinity of modern Roseburg. It has been extinct for at least fifty years and little is known about it beyond the fact that it belongs to the same Oregon Athabaskan cluster of Pacific Coast Athabaskan languages as the Coquille and Rogue River dialects and Chetco-Tolowa.
