2005 Map of Grace

About this map

Gem Valley serves as a productive agricultural basin in this 2005 revision, where the Bear River is harnessed for irrigation and power. The town of Grace stands as the primary hub, characterized by its grid of streets and the High Sch, while the settlement of Niter lies to the south. Water management is the defining landscape feature, evidenced by the Grace Dam, Last Chance Dam, and the extensive Last Chance Canal system that feeds the valley's farms. To the east, the terrain rises into the Wasatch Range and Bear River Range, part of the Caribou National Forest. Geological curiosities like the Ice Cave and Ice Cave Knoll punctuate the valley floor, providing a stark contrast to the surrounding canyon-cleft mountains such as Nelson Canyon and Burton Canyon.
