2020 Map of Bear Lake South

About this map

Bear Lake dominates the western half of this area, its shoreline serving as the primary anchor for the settlements and infrastructure in this corner of Rich County. Along the southwestern shore, the grid of Garden City expands near Bear Lake Blvd, while the eastern side of the lake presents a more sparsely developed landscape defined by the steep transitions from the water to the high terrain. These eastern slopes are cut by dramatic geological features such as North Eden Canyon and South Eden Canyon, where drainages like Little Cr and Cottonwood Cr flow toward the lake. This 2020 topographical record highlights the contrast between the concentrated growth in Garden City and the recreational and rural access points along the eastern shore, including Cisco Beach and the network of roads like Shoreline Rd that skirt the water's edge.
