2014 Map of Causey Dam

About this map

Causey Dam stands as a central engineering feature within this high-elevation landscape of the Cache National Forest. The impounded waters of the Causey Reservoir are fed by a complex drainage system, including the S Fork Ogden River and its tributaries like the Left Fork S Fork Ogden River. This 2014 survey captures a terrain defined by steep ridges and narrow canyons, where named features often reflect local family histories or physical characteristics, such as Jorgensen Hollow, Pete Nelson Hollow, and the evocative Skull Crack Canyon. Transportation is limited to a few arterial routes like E Hwy 39 and unpaved access ways such as Burma Rd and Skull Crack Canyon Rd. The map illustrates a transitional environment where the open expanse of Sagebrush Flat meets the high elevations of Lightning Ridge and Baldy Ridge.
