2014 Map of Francis

About this map

Francis occupies a central position in this 2014 survey, situated where the Kamas Valley meets the northern reaches of the Heber Valley. The landscape is defined by the significant hydrological presence of the Provo River and the eastern edge of the Jordanelle Reservoir, which together anchor the region's geography. Settlement patterns are concentrated along highway corridors like Ut-32 and Ut-35, while the surrounding terrain is marked by numerous named draws and canyons, including Big Pole Canyon, Little Pole Canyon, and Lady Long Hollow. For those researching local lineages, several burial sites are clearly identified, including the Upper Francis Cem, Lower Francis Cem, and Kamas Cem. The map provides a contemporary look at the interface between residential expansion, such as Victory Ranch Dr, and the traditional agricultural and mountain terrain of Summit and Wasatch Counties.
