About this map

The Bear River meanders through the heart of this Franklin County landscape, creating a wide riparian corridor flanked by the agricultural communities of Preston, Weston, and Dayton. This recent survey reveals an intricate irrigation network essential to the valley's character, including the W Cache Canal, Upper Canal, and Twin Lakes Canal E Lateral. The grid-patterned streets of the settlements are well-defined, centering on landmarks like the Franklin County Courthouse in the county seat.

Beyond the primary townships, smaller locales like Anderson and Fairview anchor the rural sections of the quadrangle. Significant transportation and infrastructure features are prominent, such as the Preston Airport and numerous rural thoroughfares like Weston-Fairview Rd and Co Rd D1. The terrain is shaped by several watercourses including Fivemile Cr and Weston Cr, which sustain the productive lands between the high benches of the Cache Valley.
