1961 Map of Mountain Dell

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Mormon Pioneer Trail and the Donner-Reed Route trace the migration history of the American West across these high mountain passes. The map documents the convergence of several historic paths through the Wasatch Mountains, including the Mormon Party route and the Donner Reed Route, as they descend toward the Great Salt Lake valley. The settlement at Pinecrest and the Ephraim Hanks Station Pony Express Marker emphasize the area's role as a vital corridor for western transit. Infrastructure such as the Mountain Dell Reservoir, the Filtration Plant, and several pipelines reflect the growing mid-century utility needs of the region. Recreational and memorial spaces like the Girl Scout Camp, Mountain Dell Golf Course, and Geo Washington Memorial Grove suggest a landscape transitioning from a rugged transit passage to a managed recreational and resource-focused area.
