About this map

The Spanish Fork and Mapleton interface showcases the transition from the developed valley floor to the steep elevations of the Wasatch Range. The complex water management system is a defining characteristic of this landscape, featuring the Mapleton Lateral, Mill Race Canal, and the S Field Canal which service the agricultural lands of the East Bench. These man-made watercourses contrast with the natural drainage of the Spanish Fork river as it exits the Uinta National Forest.

In the southern reaches, the topography becomes increasingly intricate with numerous named canyons such as Snell Canyon and Thurber Canyon. Local landmarks like Dominguez Hill and the presence of Castilla Springs and Cold Springs highlight the geographical diversity of the area. This 2014 survey documents the modern suburban expansion of Spanish Fork alongside long-established transportation corridors like Us-6 and the historic Mapleton Siding.
