About this map

Naomi Peak and the high summits of the Bear River Range dominate this 2017 study of the Cache National Forest. The landscape is defined by deep glacial cirques and alpine basins, including those holding Tony Grove Lake, White Pine Lake, and High Creek Lake. High-altitude industrial history is preserved at the site of the Steam Mill in Steam Mill Canyon, providing evidence of the timber and resource extraction that occurred in these remote drainages.

Transport through the area is limited to rugged corridors like Franklin Basin Road and the Mt Naomi Peak NRT. The map details a complex system of canyons such as Smithfield Canyon and Cottonwood Canyon, which serve as primary watersheds for the valley below. Distinctive landmarks like Mt Gog and Mt Magog stand as prominent markers for hikers and backcountry researchers navigating the high country along the Utah and Idaho border.
