2011 Map of Mountain Dell

About this map

Mountain Dell Reservoir and the surrounding Wasatch Range terrain dominate this 2011 perspective of the canyons east of Salt Lake City. The landscape is defined by the critical drainage of Emigration Creek, a historic corridor marked by landmarks such as Last Camp and Brigham Fork. Modern land use is evident in the Mountain Dell Golf Course and the structural presence of the Mountain Dell Dam, while the surrounding slopes are etched with traditional routes like The Sheep Trl and Emigration Canyon Rd. Notable peaks and passes, including Big Mountain Pass and Lookout Peak, offer a clear view of the high-elevation geography that has historically funneled travel toward the valley. Smaller settlements and sites like Camp Grant, Kelvin Grove, and Maple Grove sit along the creek beds, illustrating the pockets of development within the rugged drainages of Killyon Canyon and Mountain Dell Canyon.
