1948 Map of Bridal Veil Falls

About this map

Provo Canyon serves as a vital corridor through the Wasatch Range, where the Provo River and the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad parallel one another through the mountain gap. This mid-century survey highlights a concentration of small settlements and recreation points along the canyon floor, including Wildwood, Vivian Park, and Springdell. The 1969 photorevisions document the presence of the Aerial Tramway near the iconic Bridal Veil Falls, a landmark that has long defined the local landscape.
