2011 Map of Francis Canyon

About this map

Lost Creek Reservoir serves as a primary hydrological anchor in this high-altitude landscape of northern Utah, where water management and wilderness recreation converge. The 2011 survey details a complex network of seasonal and perennial drainages, including Squaw Creek, Blue Fork Creek, and Saleratus Creek, which carve out a rugged series of named hollows. For genealogists and local historians, family-named landmarks like Doc Dorlands Hollow and Joe Hollow provide clues to early land use or homesteading. The presence of the Lost Creek Campground at the edge of the reservoir indicates the area's modern role in public land management under the U.S. Forest Service. The map traces the intricate branching of the Left Hand Fork Coal Hollow, Middle Fork Coal Hollow, and Right Hand Fork Coal Hollow, illustrating the topographic complexity that dictates travel through these mountain corridors.
