About this map

Woodruff serves as the primary hub in this corner of Rich County, where the meandering Bear River flows through a landscape defined by water management and high-country relief. The settlement is anchored by the Woodruff Cemetery and the Eastman Family Cemetery, reflecting the deep familial roots of this agricultural community. To the east, the terrain rises toward Little Crawford Mountain, while the western hills are dotted with livestock-supporting infrastructure like Limestone Reservoir, Higgins Hollow Reservoir, and South Big Creek Reservoir Number 2.

Transport and land use follow the contours of the drainage systems, with Woodruff Creek and Genes Creek feeding into the wider valley. High points such as Sugarloaf and Limestone Peak overlook a network of local thoroughfares, including Cementary Rd and the aptly named Mine Rd near the Bear River. The map illustrates a high-desert environment where every drainage, from Sage Hollow to Saleratus Creek, is essential to the local economy and settlement pattern.
