About this map

Mount Naomi Wilderness dominates the northern reaches of this late-twentieth-century survey, centered on the high peaks of the Mount Naomi range. The landscape is defined by the dramatic descent from Mt Elmer and Mt Jardine into the deep drainages of Smithfield Canyon and Birch Canyon. To the south, the Logan River carves a significant corridor through the Cache National Forest, serving as a primary focal point for recreation and forest management.

Evidence of established forest infrastructure is clear along the river, where the Card Canyon Guard Station and Guinavah Amphitheater sit near a string of developed sites like the Guinavah-Malibu Campground and Spring Hollow Campground. Notable landmarks such as the Wind Cave and the Third Dam on the Logan River highlight the area's geological and utility history, while labels like China Row Picnic Area hint at localized naming traditions within the canyon's recreation network.
