About this map

Cedar Fort and Fairfield sit at the western edge of Cedar Valley, anchored by a legacy of pioneer settlement and military history near the base of Long Ridge. The landscape is defined by the transition from the Oquirrh Mountains' canyons, such as Threemile Canyon and Broadmouth Canyon, to the expanding residential grids of Eagle Mountain. This 2014 survey documents the area's mid-2010s suburban growth, with new developments like the Pony Express Pky and Eagle Mountain Blvd cutting across the valley floor.

Genealogists and local historians can trace the proximity of the Fairfield Cem and Camp Floyd Cem, which mark the vicinity of the historic Johnston's Army encampment. Water management is vital to this arid valley, evidenced by the Cedar Fort Ditch and Spring Cr. Aviation interests are also represented by the Cedar Valley Airport and Glenmar Ranch Airport, reflecting the region's continued importance as an open corridor for transport and training.
