2020 Map of Wellsville

About this map

Wellsville and Mendon anchor the western edge of Cache Valley in this 2020 survey, where the steep eastern slopes of the Wasatch Range meet a complex network of waterways. The transition from the high Wellsville Mountains to the valley floor is marked by numerous drainage features such as Deep Canyon, Coldwater Canyon, and Pine Canyon. Below these peaks, the landscape is defined by irrigation and recreation, featuring the Wellsville-Mendon Lower Canal and the Blacksmith Fork Hyrum Canal. The Little Bear River meanders through the central valley, creating unique landforms like The Island and supporting recreational paths including the Little Bear River Canoe Trail and N Marsh Canoe Trail. Genealogists will find the Wellsville Cem and Mendon City Cem clearly marked, serving the historic communities that have farmed this region for generations. To the northeast, the outskirts of Logan and the community of College Ward illustrate the modern agricultural and residential footprint of the county.
