2013 Map of North Heglar Canyon

About this map

Cedar Creek Peak and the southern reaches of the Sublett Range dominate this portion of the Sawtooth National Forest along the border of Cassia and Power counties. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of drainage systems, including North Heglar Canyon and South Heglar Canyon, which channel seasonal water toward the lower valleys. This area reveals a history of land use focused on livestock and small-scale resource extraction, evidenced by the high density of named water sources such as Clint Palmer Spring, Bruce Young Spring, and the curiously named Moonshine Spring. The presence of Mine Dump Spring suggests past prospecting activity amidst the canyons. This 2013 survey provides a clear view of the forest service roads, such as N Heglar Rd, that provide access to high-elevation landmarks like Eagle Point and the various cattle-watering forks.
