Maintaining adequate ground-water supplies and limiting the potential for well interference are critical issues in determining the extent and nature of future development in Cache Valley

Cody, Wyoming - 30x60 Minute USGS Topographic Map blm Pages: 169 pThe distinctive characteristic of a topographic map is that the shape of the Earth's surface is shown by contour lines. Contours are imaginary lines that join points of equal elevation on the surface of the land above or below a reference surface, such as mean sea level. Contours make it possible to measure the height of mountains, depths of the ocean bottom, and steepness of slopes. A topographic map shows more than contours. The map also includes
