About this map

Evergreen Park and the residential enclaves of the Green Hill area anchor the eastern edge of this landscape, where mountain roads like Green Hill Rd and Pine Ave wind through the foothills. The terrain is defined by the complex drainage of the Middle Fork Ogden River, which is fed by numerous tributaries including Gerisen Creek, Elk Creek, and Cobble Creek. This area serves as a significant recreational corridor, evidenced by the dense cluster of public sites along the South Fork Ogden River, such as Perception Park Campground and Willows Park Picnic Ground.

Tracing the geography reveals several distinct landmarks, including the natural depression of Browns Hole and the carved paths of Magpie Canyon and Kelley Canyon. To the south, the Ben Lomond Station Post Office provides a point of local infrastructure near the North Branch South Fork Ogden River. The presence of Camp Beaver and the Hawthorne Campground reflects the long-standing use of this section of the Wasatch Range for seasonal camping and organized outdoor activities.
