2014 Map of Old Canyon

About this map

Cache National Forest encompasses the high-altitude terrain of this region in Rich County, where numerous springs and creeks feed into the Otter Cr drainage system. The map documents the physical geography and hydrology of the Bear River Range area, centered on drainage points like Clawson Spring, Longhurst Spring, and Willow Spring. Historically significant markers such as Old Canyon and New Canyon indicate the movement and naming conventions of early settlers navigating these mountain passes. High peaks including Twin Peaks and Monument Peak frame the landscape, while man-made additions like Nick Reservoir and the Otter Creek Rd trace the intersection of water management and transportation. The detailed record of canyon names, such as Laketown Cyn and Pole Canyon, provides a valuable resource for tracing local geography as it was formally recognized in the early 21st century.
