About this map

Hogback Ridge and the complex drainage systems of the Bear Lake plateau define this area of Rich County. This landscape is a network of named springs and seasonal watercourses that reflect the vital importance of water management in this high-altitude terrain. Notable water sources such as Rabbit Spring, Hidden Spring, and Bull Spring dot the hillsides, feeding into larger systems like Sixmile Cr and Duck Cr.

Modern water infrastructure is evident in the Sage Cr Canal, which moves water through the southeastern section of the quadrangle near Sage Cr. The elevation varies significantly between the depths of Pine Canyon and the prominent height of Red Knoll. For those interested in the area's geography, the map traces the Six Mile Creek Rd as it winds through canyons like Mahogany Canyon, providing a detailed look at the rural access routes used for ranching and resource management.
