About this map

Cedar Valley opens between the Oquirrh Mountains and Long Ridge in this late-1990s survey of Utah County. The landscape preserves layers of pioneer and transportation history, specifically at Fairfield, where the Stage Coach Inn State Historical Site and Camp Floyd State Historical Site mark the location of a major mid-19th century military encampment and transit hub. The Historic Pony Express National Trail and several stretches of Old Railroad Grade track across the valley floor, illustrating the corridor's long-standing role as a vital western passage.

To the north, the settlement of Cedar Fort remains clustered near the mountain foothills, while the emerging Eagle Mountain corporate boundary signals modern residential expansion into the open valley. Local infrastructure is noted through the Cedar Valley Airport, numerous wells, and the Aqueduct skirting the base of the mountains, which feed the agricultural and growing residential needs of this semi-arid region.
