About this map

The Bear River Range dominates this portion of the Cache National Forest, where the borders of Caribou, Bear Lake, and Franklin counties converge. The landscape is defined by a complex system of high-altitude basins and drainage canyons, including the notable Cheatbeck Basin and South Ant Basin. Water sources are scattered throughout the highlands, represented by Tie Camp Spring, Humberg Spring, and the isolated Loa Lake.

Evidence of the region's historical and recreational accessibility is visible through named routes like Skinner Canyon Rd and Eight Mile Creek Rd, which provide access to landmarks such as Sherman Peak. For researchers and geographers, the map documents the intricate network of tributaries feeding Eightmile Cr and North Creek, alongside specific named terrain features like Moonlight Meadow and Grunder Hollow, illustrating the diverse topography of southeastern Idaho's high country.
