2023 Map of Water Creek Canyon

About this map

Fishlake National Forest encompasses the high mountain ridges and canyons of this 2023 survey in Sevier County. The landscape is defined by the significant elevation of Cove Mountain, where the terrain transitions from deep drainages like Water Creek Canyon and Kings Meadow Canyon to high alpine meadows. Several family-named features and landmarks are scattered across the plateau, including Saul Meadow, Hunters Flat, and Henries Hollow, suggesting a history of seasonal grazing or early land use. Water management is central to this geography, evidenced by the presence of Annabella Reservoir, Bear Valley Reservoir, and Davis Hollow Reservoir, along with numerous mountain springs like Hunters Spring and Killian Spring. A complex network of backcountry routes, such as the Monroe Mountain, Cove Mountain Road and the The Circle (Motorized) Trail, provides access to these isolated forest interior locations.
