1955 Map of Peterson

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Peterson sits as a primary settlement within the Morgan Valley, positioned where the Union Pacific railroad corridors and the Weber River navigate the terrain. This 1950s survey captures the region's complex water management and topography, illustrating the transition from the river valley floor to the high elevations of the Wasatch Range. The map reveals a dense network of mountain drainage systems, including the Right Hand Fork Peterson Creek and Smith Creek, which feed into the valley below. Local history is anchored by features like the Peterson Cem and the remote Sunset Campground. Prominent peaks such as Francis Peak and Nielsons Peak define the western skyline, marking the rugged boundary between Morgan and Davis Counties as it was recorded during the mid-century.
