1951 Map of Jones Narrows

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The Jordan River carves through the gap at Jordan Narrows, a critical choke point for irrigation and transport between the Salt Lake and Utah valleys. This mid-century landscape is defined by its infrastructure, from the Utah State Prison in the north to the extensive Camp Williams Military Reservation that spans the Traverse Mountains. The map illustrates a complex network of water management, including the Utah Lake Distributing Canal and the Provo Reservoir Canal, which supported the agriculture of settlements like Bluffdale and Clinton. Rail history is prominently featured with the Union Pacific and Denver and Rio Grande Western lines, while the Salt Lake and Utah Railroad (Abandoned) traces a former electric interurban route. Industrial activity is concentrated at numerous Gravel Pits near Mount and Nash, highlighting the local resource extraction during this era of regional growth.
