2011 Map of Goshen Valley North

About this map

Utah Lake dominates the eastern half of this landscape, its waters meeting the low-lying agricultural and desert terrain of the northern Goshen Valley. The western shoreline is marked by marshy inlets and the smaller White Lake, suggesting a dynamic riparian environment where the valley floor meets the water. In the north, Coyote Pass provides a natural corridor through the higher elevations, while a structured grid of rural roads, including W 8400 S St and S 12000 W, defines the settlement patterns south of the lake's primary basin. This survey documents the area's hydrology at a time when Pinyon Creek flowed from the southwest toward the lake. The intersection of desert mountain passes and significant freshwater resources illustrates the classic topographical constraints that have shaped development in this portion of Utah County.
