About this map

Cache National Forest encompasses this high-elevation landscape along the border of Weber and Morgan counties. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainages and named knolls, including the central Bybee Knoll and the distinctively named Hoodoo Knoll. The map reveals a history of land use through family-named landmarks like Pete Nelson Hollow, Tom Condies Flat, and Frank Hollow, suggesting a legacy of early grazing or homesteading in these remote uplands.

Water sources are vital to this environment, marked by several essential points such as Willow Spring, Cold Spring, and Rock Spring. The drainage patterns are complex, with the Right Hand Fork Bybee Cr and Maggie Hopkins Cottonwood Cr cutting deep paths through the topography. Road access is limited to a few primitive routes like Folley Ridge Rd and Pine Canyon Rd, reflecting the area's continued character as a managed forest wilderness.
