About this map

The Weber River winds through the southwestern corner of this Summit County landscape, where the settlement of Oakley transitions into the steep drainage systems of the Wasatch Range. The topography is defined by a series of significant canyons including Crandall Canyon, Cherry Canyon, and Dunford Canyon, which channel water toward the valley floor. High-altitude water management is evident in the presence of the Sargent Number One Reservoir and Elkhorn Reservoir, positioned along the ridgelines near Elkhorn Divide.

In the north, the small community of Hoytsville sits near the upper reaches of Cottonwood Canyon. The map reveals a complex network of seasonal creeks and basins, such as Whites Creek and Whites Basin, situated beneath the prominent peak of Big Piney Mountain. This 2017 survey provides a clear view of the modern rural infrastructure, including Spring Canyon Road, where traditional agricultural lands meet the protected forest and canyon terrain.
