About this map

Cache National Forest encompasses this high-altitude landscape where the Logan River cuts through steep canyons in northeastern Utah. The topography is defined by its seasonal water sources and landmarks that speak to the area’s recreational and historical significance, such as the Loma Girls Camp and the Lodge Campground. Unique waypoints like Ephraims Grave and Hunsaker Corral provide specific touchpoints for local historians and genealogists tracking land use in the late 1960s.

The map details an intricate network of waterways and springs, including Ricks Spring and the Temple Fork, which feed the drainages surrounding Temple Peak. These features, along with caves like Logan Cave and various picnic areas, illustrate a region transitionally managed for both preservation and public access. The presence of numerous named hollows, such as Bear Hollow and Steel Canyon, underscores the complex drainage patterns essential to the local watershed.
