1951 Map of Fort Douglas

USGS Topo · Published 1951

About this map

The eastern edge of Salt Lake City meets the rising slopes of the Sessions Mountains in this early 1950s survey. The map details a sophisticated urban-wildland interface where the city's grid, including University of Utah and the expansive City Cemetery, abruptly gives way to the deep drainages of Red Butte Canyon and Emigration Canyon. The military presence is dominant at Fort Douglas, which includes a dedicated military reservation and golf course.
