About this map

Camp Williams State Military Reservation dominates the central and southern portions of this landscape, where the Traverse Mountains meet the northern edge of the Cedar Valley. This terrain is defined by its transition from the steep, high ridges of the Oquirrh Mountains down to the open alluvial flats of Drill Hole Wash. Evidence of industrial activity and water management is visible in the northwest corner, notably the Butterfield Tunnel and scattered Prospect sites near Yellow Fork Canyon.

The border between Salt Lake and Utah counties cuts across the northern slopes, passing through Yellow Fork Canyon County Park. Strategically placed Target Ranges and numerous 4wd tracks illustrate the modern utility of the Military Reservation. Natural water sources like Tickville Spring and Rose Canyon Spring provide critical points of interest in an otherwise arid environment characterized by prominent landmarks like Step Mtn and Shaggy Peak.
