About this map

The eastern shores of Utah Lake serve as the backdrop for a landscape defined by rapid mid-century expansion and industrial development. This survey reveals the corridor between the Wasatch Range and the water, where the massive Geneva steel plant and its associated Cooling Pond dominate the lakefront. To the east, the rising foothills are anchored by the Uinta National Forest, featuring the dramatic heights of Mount Timpanogos and Big Baldy.
