About this map

Cache National Forest land defines this late-twentieth-century landscape across the Weber and Morgan County line. The terrain is a complex system of drainage basins and named high points, including Herd Mountain and Bybee Knoll. The map reveals a land utilized for remote infrastructure and seasonal grazing, evidenced by the presence of high-altitude Landing Strips and numerous developed Springs such as Box Spring.

A network of canyons and hollows, often bearing the names of local figures, provides a blueprint of the regional geography. Notable drainages include Cottonwood Creek, Gildersleeve Canyon, and Tom Condies Hollow, which opens onto Tom Condies Flat. The transition between the high ridges and deep canyons like Skull Crack Canyon or Magpie Canyon is navigable only by a limited network of 4wd trails, illustrating the undeveloped character of the northern Utah backcountry during this era.
