2017 Map of James Peak

About this map

James Peak and the high ridges of the Wasatch Range dominate this northern Utah landscape where Cache and Weber counties meet. The high-altitude terrain is defined by a series of steep drainages, including Mormon Hollow and Shingle Mill Hollow, which feed into major watercourses like the S Fork Little Bear River. The map provides clear evidence of the region's ranching and agricultural history through family-named landmarks such as Alex Beard Hill and McKenzie Mtn. Within the Cache National Forest, the topography transitions from the heights of Cobabe Peak down to McKenzie Flat. An interesting piece of water management infrastructure is visible at the northern edge where the Cache Valley Canal navigates the lower elevations. The network of forest roads and trails, including Flint Grove Rd and Public Grove ATV, reveals how this wilderness area is accessed for both resource management and recreation.
