About this map

Lost Creek Reservoir serves as the central landmark of this high-elevation terrain along the border of Weber and Morgan counties. Formed by the Lost Creek Dam, the waters reach into Francis Canyon and Spring Hollow, providing a stark contrast to the surrounding ridges of the Cache National Forest. The landscape is defined by a dense network of drainages and named canyons, including Paradise Canyon, Stokes Canyon, and Wheatgrass Canyon, which weave between high points like Guilder Peak and the prominent Stark Ridge.

Surface transportation is limited to the winding courses of Lost Creek Rd and Killfoil Creek Rd, which trace the natural topography of the land. Evidence of the area's resource-based history is found in places like Mine Hollow and the sheltered Lost Valley. The complex system of dry hollows and creek beds, such as Little Trail Cr and Belnap Cr, illustrates the intricate watershed feeding into the northern reaches of the reservoir.
