About this map

Cache National Forest dominates this high-altitude landscape along the border of Weber and Morgan counties. The 1990 provisional data highlights a complex network of drainages and prominent peaks, including Herd Mountain in the northwest and Bybee Knoll at the center. This area is defined by its deep canyons and named hollows, such as Tom Condies Hollow and Pete Nelson Hollow, which reveal a legacy of land use and family-named landmarks.

Resource extraction and transit are evidenced by a Quarry in the southwest near the Dry Fork Creek and various unnamed landing strips. The map documents numerous water sources critical for high-country survival, from Rock Spring to the Springs found at higher elevations. Navigating this terrain requires tracing the winding paths of Cottonwood Creek and its many tributaries that carve through the limestone and brush of Folley Ridge.
