About this map

Mt Elmer and the prominent ridges of the Bear River Range dominate this late-1960s survey of the Cache National Forest. The landscape is defined by deep drainage systems like Green Canyon and Birch Canyon that feed toward the southern valley floor. Along the banks of the Logan River, a developed recreational corridor is visible, featuring a dense string of sites including Guinavah Campground, Malibu Campground, and the Guinavah Amphitheater.

Evidence of early forestry and mountain navigation is present through numerous labels for pack trails and 4WD tracks that skirt peaks such as Beirdneau Peak. Notable landmarks for researchers include the Card Canyon Guard Station and the ancient Old Jardine Juniper, along with the geological formation at Wind Cave. The infrastructure of the era is represented by Third Dam and a series of spring-fed hollows like Wood Camp Hollow and Tab Hollow.
