1955 Map of Heber

About this map

Heber and Midway center this 1950s survey of the Heber Valley, showing a landscape defined by its agricultural roots and an extensive network of irrigation infrastructure like the Wasatch and Timpanogos canals. To the north and west, the terrain rises sharply into the mountains, where the heavy industrial footprint of the Park City mining district is evident through features like the Ontario Drain Tunnel, Mayflower Mine, and Glencoe Mine. Along the Provo River, the settlements of Hailstone and Jordanelle appear in their original locations before later water reclamation projects altered the valley floor. Educational and civic life is anchored by Wasatch High Sch, North School, and Central School, while the valley's thermal activity is marked by various Hot Springs and the landmark Memorial Hill.
