About this map

Portage sits at the northeastern edge of this northern Utah landscape, where the valley floor meets the rising elevations of the West Hills. The settlement is defined by a grid of streets like Center St, serving as a gateway to the complex drainage systems that carve through the high ground to the west. The terrain is marked by a series of significant canyons and hollows, including Portage Canyon, Middle Canyon, and Little Canyon, which illustrate the natural corridors used for movement between the higher peaks and the agricultural flats.

Genealogists and local historians will find the Portage Cem situated just outside the main town cluster, providing a specific point of interest for family research. Landmark peaks such as Limekiln Knoll and Lemon Peak dominate the central topography, while the southern portion of the map opens into the broader expanse of Whites Valley. This 2020 survey documents the modern road network, including Middle Canyon Rd and Johnson Canyon Rd, which follow these historic natural pathways.
