About this map

Echo Canyon dominates this landscape, serving as a historic conduit through the high country of Summit and Morgan counties. The settlement of Emory, accompanied by the Emory Cem, sits as a primary point of reference along the E Echo Canyon Rd and the interstate corridor. This passage has long been vital for travel and transport, carved out by Echo Creek as it winds toward the southwest.

Away from the main thoroughfare, the terrain is defined by a complex network of drainages including Heiners Creek and Grass Creek. A labyrinth of local routes like Pole Mountain Rd, Dugway Rd, and Skyline Dr provides access to the higher elevations and named draws such as Signal Canyon and Spring Canyon. The presence of Aspen Dell and numerous named hollows like Shea Hollow indicates a transition into more isolated ranching or recreational lands, while the Morgan County and Summit County boundary line splits the western ridges.
