This valley was first known as Willow Valley, but as mountain men began to cache their furs and trapping gear in the valley, the name was changed by common usage to Cache Valley (Van Cott, p. 61) & (Boone, p. 60). The central portion of the Cache National Forest, the Bear Range, was reserved by President Theodore Roosevelt in 1903 at the request of the residents of Cache and Rich Counties in Utah. The forest reserve was needed for the purpose of controlling grazing by sheep and cattle. Watersheds in the Bear River Range had been so heavily grazed that summer floods and mud-rock flows endangered the water supplies and threatened irrigation works with silting. President Roosevelt first established the Logan Forest Reserve on May 29, 1903 on 182,080 acres. The Logan Forest Reserve later merged with over 500,000 acres of public land to create the new Bear River Forest Reserve in 1906 on 683,280 acres.

  • Selected Aquatic Biological Investigations in the Great Salt Lake Basins, 1875-1998, National Water-Quality Assessment Program
    SELECTED AQUATIC BIOLOGICAL INVESTIGATIONS IN THE GREAT SALT LAKE BASINS, 1875-1998, NATIONAL WATER-QUALITY ASSESSMENT PROGRAM By Elise M. Giddings and Doyle Stephens U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY Water-Resources Investigations Report 99-4132 National Water-Quality Assessment Program Salt Lake City, Utah 1999 U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR BRUCE BABBITT, Secretary U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY Charles G. Groat, Director FOREWORD The mission of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is to assess the quantity and quality of the earth resources of the Nation and to provide information that will assist resource managers and policymakers at Federal, State, and local levels in making sound decisions. Assessment of water-quality conditions and trends is an important part of this overall mission. One of the greatest challenges faced by water-resources scientists is acquiring reliable information that will guide the use and protection of the Nation’s water resources. That challenge is being addressed by Federal, State, interstate, and local water-resource agencies and by many academic institutions. These organizations are collecting water- quality data for a host of purposes that include: compliance with permits and water-supply standards; development of remediation plans for specific contamination problems; operational decisions on industrial, wastewater, or water- supply facilities; and research on factors that affect water quality. An additional need for water-quality information is to provide a basis on which regional- and national-level policy decisions can be based. Wise decisions must be based on sound information. As a society, we need to know whether certain types of water-quality problems are isolated or ubiquitous, whether there are significant differences in conditions among regions, whether the conditions are changing over time, and why these conditions change from place to place and over time.

  • History of the Uinta National Forest
    History of the Uinta National Forest A Century of Stewardship United States Forest Uinta National Provo, Department of Service Forest Utah Agriculture History of the Uinta National Forest A Century of Stewardship Editor: Shaun R. Nelson Contributions By: Loyal Clark Stephanie Hall Rebecca Hirschi Peter Karp Bevan Killpack Lola Murray Debra Tatman Charmaine Thompson Cover photos, clockwise from upper left: Silver Lake Reservoir with Mount Timpanogos in the background, Dan Gull and A. Taylor looking over Ray’s Valley reseeding, 1951, Boy Scouts volunteering at Tibble Fork Reservoir, and Provo Peak Watershed Project meeting at the mouth of Slate Canyon, 1935. Copyright 1997 Uinta National Forest Forward We have no way of knowing who first named the area called the Uinta National Forest. We do know that the word “Uinta” comes from a Native American word meaning “pine tree” or “pine forest.” The forested areas, wonderful streams, meadows, striking mountains and rock formations, along with the native wildlife, fish and plants make this National Forest one of the finest lands that we have in our entire country! We expect the early inhabitants relied very heavily on the natural resources that were produced on the Uinta. Their lives depended on the wild animals, fish, plants, and clean water that came from the Uinta. Products from the Forest were undoubtedly used for clothing, shelter, and heat for warmth and cooking. While little is known about the early people’s use of the Forest, much more is known about the settlers that moved here from the East. These people were very dependent on forest resources to carve out a settlement suitable for their needs.
