About this map

Brigham City serves as the focal point of this modern survey, situated where the Bear River Valley meets the dramatic western slopes of the Wasatch Range. The landscape is a study in complex water management and conservation, featuring the sprawling Bear River Migratory Bird Refuge and a dense network of irrigation systems including the Hammond West Branch Canal, Hammond East Branch Canal, and the North String Irrigation Ditch.

Settlement patterns follow the transition from the fertile valley floor to the base of the Wellsville Mountains, with small communities like Honeyville and Bear River City connected by rural routes such as Calls Fort Rd. Researchers will find significant local history markers preserved, from the landmark Box Elder County Court House to early pioneer sites like Call's Fort and multiple burial grounds including the Call's Fort Cem and Brigham City Cem. Elevation ranges from the wetlands of The Horseshoe and Black Slough to the peaks above Cataract Canyon and Antimony Canyon.
