About this map

James Peak and the high ridges of the Wasatch Range dominate this northern Utah landscape within the Cache National Forest. The map documents a complex system of drainages, where the S Fork Little Bear River cuts through several named canyons and hollows, including Threemile Canyon and Shingle Mill Hollow. To the east, the terrain transitions into the high-altitude reaches of McKenzie Flat and the slopes of Middle Mtn.

The presence of family-named landmarks like Alex Beard Hill and Alex Beard Hollow, along with Starks Hollow and Jenson Hollow, provides significant geographic context for local history and land usage. Notable water features such as Pets Spring and various creek headwaters like Wolf Cr and Davenport Cr underscore the vital role of these mountain watersheds. The survey also captures the boundary where the Cache County and Weber County lines meet near Cobabe Peak.
