About this map

Stansbury Park and the nearby community of Mills Junction anchor this 2020 map, illustrating the modern residential development and infrastructure at the base of the Oquirrh Mountains. The landscape is defined by its proximity to the Great Salt Lake, where Eardley Spit and the surrounding wetlands meet the alkaline shoreline. The map reveals how local hydrology is managed through features like the Irrigation Canal and the recreationally focused Mill Pond, which sits at the heart of the Stansbury Park development.

Genealogists and local historians can find several important landmarks, including Lake Point Cem and Stansbury Park Cem, providing vital records for the area's families. Industrial and transport connections are evident via the Union Pacific Access Rd and the proximity to Kennecott Rd, reflecting the regional importance of mining and freight. Geological interests are represented by Adobe Rock, a prominent limestone formation that has served as a landmark for travelers in the Tooele Valley for generations.
