About this map

The Wasatch Range dominates this portion of Summit County, where steep drainage networks like Big Dutch Hollow and Little Emigration Canyon define the high-country terrain. Historically significant routes cross these slopes, most notably the Mormon Trail, which winds through the western ridges toward the valley. The southern portion of the map shows modern residential expansion near Gogorza and Altus, with a dense network of suburban roads including Jeremy Ranch Road and Rasmussen Road encroaching on the mountain slopes.

Large protected areas like Toll Canyon and Parleys Park remain open spaces amidst this development. The landscape is characterized by its numerous labeled hollows and canyons, such as Dry Hollow and Alexander Canyon, which funnel water into seasonal creeks like E Canyon Creek and Schuster Creek. The interplay between historical pioneer trails and contemporary canyon communities is visible along the border of the Morgan and Summit County line.
