About this map

Causey Reservoir serves as the focal point of this Weber County landscape, where the South Fork Ogden River is impounded by the Causey Dam. This 2011 survey reveals a geography defined by the convergence of multiple drainages, including Beaver Creek, Rock Creek, and the Left Fork South Fork Ogden River. The surrounding terrain is heavily dissected by numerous canyons and hollows, such as Wheat Grass Canyon, Skull Crack Canyon, and Dry Bread Hollow.

Cultural landmarks and recreational infrastructure are evident throughout the area, including Camp Kiesel, Camp Red Cliff, and the Skull Crack Campground. Access to the backcountry is provided via the Skull Crack Trailhead and a network of mountain roads like Mill Rd and Causey Dr. Local landmarks like Red Rock Ranch and named ridges such as Baldy Ridge and Elk Ridge offer specific points of interest for those tracing the development of this drainage basin.
