2017 Map of Turner Hollow

About this map

Hoytsville and its local airfield sit at the southwestern edge of this landscape, where the valley floor gives way to the high elevations of the Bear River Range. The terrain is defined by a series of significant canyons and drainage systems, including Chalk Cr and its southern fork, which cut through the high country. Local naming conventions reveal a history of livestock and agricultural utility, with labels such as Turner Meadows, Sage Hollow, and The Meadows indicating established grazing or settlement sites. Transport through these corridors is facilitated by unpaved routes like E Chalk Creek Rd and Clarks Canyon Rd. Geographic landmarks like The Narrows and the Elkhorn Divide highlight the natural bottlenecks and high points that governed movement across this part of Summit County.
