2014 Map of Snow Basin

About this map

Mountain Green and Peterson sit within the drainage of the Weber River as it cuts through the mountains south of Snow Basin. This corridor, where the Morgan Valley HWY 30 and the river pass through the Gateway gap, represents a critical transition between the high peaks of the Wasatch Range and the agricultural valley floor. The map documents a landscape defined by winter sports infrastructure and rugged natural landmarks, from the bowl formations like Easter Bowl and Strawberry Bowl to named peaks like De Moisy Peak and Sardine Peak. Small-scale water management is evident in the numerous mountain springs and catchments, including Hawkins Reservoir and Northwest Reservoir. The presence of the Mountain Green Cem and the Morgan County Airport near the intersection of Trappers Loop Rd highlights the mix of early settlement history and modern regional utility in this mountain pass.
