About this map

Avon marks the northern edge of this high-altitude landscape where the Bear River Range meets the Wasatch Range. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainages including the South Fork Little Bear River and Davenport Creek, which carve through Numerous hollows such as Shingle Mill Hollow and Public Grove Hollow. High points like James Peak and Cobabe Peak anchor the southern elevations, while the central portion is dominated by the protected lands of the Cache National Forest.

Tracing the topography reveals local family and historical landmarks like Alex Beard Hill and McKenzie Flat. The map documents a rugged interface of canyon roads and natural water sources, including Pets Spring, illustrating the complex drainage patterns that feed into the larger Cache Valley ecosystem. This 2023 survey serves as a precise record of these mountain corridors, from Fourmile Hill in the north to the Cache and Weber County line in the south.
