1955 Map of James Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

James Peak and the high ridges of the Cache National Forest dominate this mid-century survey along the border of Weber and Cache counties. The landscape is defined by the steep drainage systems of the Little South Fork Bear River and the South Fork Little Bear River, where numerous hollows and canyons bear the names of early settlers and ranching activities. Evidence of the area's resource history is scattered throughout the drainages, including the Honey Bee Mine and Bluebell Mine, as well as the Shingle Mill Hollow, indicating early timber or milling operations. Human activity is largely limited to remote outposts like the Fourmile Ranch and a network of primitive routes such as the Flint Grove Road and Davenport Road. The map provides a detailed look at the complex topography of Middle Mountain and McKenzie Mtn before significant modern development reached these higher elevations.
