2014 Map of Brighton

About this map

Wasatch National Forest and Uinta National Forest converge in this high-elevation landscape, where the recreational development of the Central Wasatch is clearly documented. The map centered on the alpine basins above Midway and Park City shows the footprint of major winter sports hubs like Brighton Ski Resort and the Solitude Ski Area. Beyond the ski runs, the terrain is marked by a complex network of glacial lakes including Lake Mary, Lake Catherine, and Twin Lakes Reservoir. Subsurface history is noted through engineering features like the Snake Cr Tunnel, Smuggler Tunnel, and Centennial Tunnel, which reflect the region's mining and water management legacy. The map traces the rugged divide between Salt Lake, Summit, Wasatch, and Utah counties, illustrating how public lands like Albion Basin and the Cloud Rim Girl Scout Camp preserve the high-country character amidst surrounding municipal growth.
