1997 Map of Henefer

About this map

Henefer sits along the southern bank of the Weber River in the Henefer Valley, serving as a focal point for this landscape near the turn of the 21st century. The map documents a terrain deeply shaped by water and elevation, from the heights of Windy Knoll and Middle Ridge to the convergence of Lost Creek and Echo Creek. A notable presence of industrial and commemorative sites appears here, including a Pumping Station, several Claypits, and a Borrow Pit near the river, signaling the local extraction and utility infrastructure. Genealogists and local historians can locate the Pioneer Monument and traces of the settlement at China Town in the northern canyon reaches. The area is also defined by its complex drainage network, with numerous family-named or descriptive canyons like Anderton Canyon, Rocky Canyon, and Wolf Den Canyon carving through the borders of Morgan and Summit counties.
