2005 Map of Egan Basin

About this map

The high ridges of the Bear Lake Range dominate this Idaho-Utah borderlands survey, where the Cache National Forest is managed under the administration of the Caribou National Forest. High-altitude hydrology is a central theme, with drainages like St Charles Creek and the Logan River carving through the limestone terrain. Notable landmarks include the subterranean complex of Minnetonka Cave and high-basin water bodies such as Blue Lake, Hidden Lake, and Wiggler Lake. The map reveals a landscape defined by significant elevation changes, from the deep Gibson Basin to the narrow corridors of Snowslide Canyon and Green Canyon. The transportation network is limited to rugged routes like the High Line Trail and the historical path of the Old Logan Road, reflecting the area's use for recreation and seasonal grazing rather than permanent settlement.
