About this map

Francis and Woodland occupy the high valley floors of the Wasatch Range in this 2017 survey, a landscape where residential development meets the transition into the Uinta National Forest. The northeast corner is anchored by several historic burial sites, including Kamas Cem, the Upper Francis Cem, and the Lower Francis Cem, reflecting the deep-rooted settlement of this agricultural and mountain community. To the west, the reach of the Jordanelle Reservoir cuts into the canyonlands, while the Provo River winds through the eastern meadows near Woodland.

The topography is defined by a series of deep drainages such as Lady Long Hollow, Little Pole Canyon, and Webb Hollow that descend from the ridges. While established roads like Lower River Rd follow the valley floor, newer developments like Victory Ranch Dr push into the hills, showing the modern footprint of the area. The map also records natural features like Whispering Springs and the northern tip of Heber Valley at the southern edge.
