2014 Map of Mona

About this map

Mona sits at the eastern edge of the Juab Valley, where the valley floor meets the dramatic rise of the Wasatch Range. This 2014 landscape is defined by the steep transition from the irrigated fields and settlements along the valley floor to the high-altitude wilderness of the Uinta National Forest. The map captures a detailed view of the water systems essential to this region, from the Mona Reservoir and the spring-fed Burraston Ponds to the numerous canyons like Dry Canyon and Bear Canyon that drain the mountain front. Genealogists and local historians can locate specific landmarks such as the Mona Cem and Pioneer Memorial Park, while the presence of Nortonville and Starr illustrates the historical settlement pattern along the old mountain road at the base of Mt Nebo.
