2017 Map of Honeyville

About this map

Honeyville and Deweyville anchor this 2017 survey of the corridor between the Bear River and the high peaks of the Wellsville Mountains. The map reveals a landscape defined by the sharp transition from the irrigated agricultural flats of the Bear River Valley to the steep, canyon-riven slopes of the Cache National Forest. Numerous hydrologic features suggest the importance of water management in this region, including Crystal Springs, Honeyville Springs, and the Cold Spring Lakes. Cultural landmarks like the Honeyville Cem and Deweyville Cem provide touchpoints for local genealogy, while the grid of roads such as W 11200 N and N 3000 W illustrates the organized settlement patterns of Box Elder County. The eastern half of the map is dominated by a complex network of drainages, from Dewey Canyon to Hank Bell Canyon, climbing toward prominent summits like Mendon Peak and Scout Peak.
