About this map

The northeastern shores of Utah Lake dominate this 1992 revision, documenting a landscape where urban expansion meets industrial and conservation land use. The burgeoning communities of American Fork and Pleasant Grove are mapped in detail, showing a grid of residential streets reaching toward the water's edge, including the Greenwood Sch and Botany Park. Transport and utility infrastructure is heavily represented, with the path of Interstate 15 and Highway 89 passing through Wing, alongside a large Sewage Disposal plant and industrial Vineyard corporate boundaries.

Conservation areas and shoreline features offer a sharp contrast to the developed north. The State Waterfowl Management Area preserves the marshes around Powell Slough, while more rugged terrain appears to the southwest at Pelican Point and Goose Point. This map captures the lake's edge before many of the modern shoreline developments, recording the original locations of Jetties, Boat Ramps, and a large Cooling Pond tied to local industry.
