About this map

Bear River dominates this landscape along the state line of Rich County, Utah, and Uinta County, Wyoming, as it flows near the massive Woodruff Narrows Reservoir. The 2014 mapping reveals an intricate network of irrigation and water management, including the Chapman Canal and the edge of Neponset Reservoir in the southwest. The terrain is defined by a series of named drainages and high points, from Murphy Ridge in the south to Acocks Canyon and Whitney Canyon in the east.

Road systems such as S Highway 16 and WY-89 traverse the high desert, connecting dispersed residential developments and ranching tracts. Street names like Appaloosa Dr, Quarter Horse Dr, and Mustang Dr reflect the area's equestrian and ranching culture. Geologists and local historians can trace the relationship between the natural waterways like Dry Cr and the modern infrastructure that has shaped the borderlands of these two western states.
