1948 Map of Spanish Fork

About this map

The Wasatch Range forms a towering eastern backdrop to the growing agricultural and industrial centers of Spanish Fork and Payson in the mid-1970s. This survey illustrates the intricate irrigation network of the Utah Valley, dominated by the Salem Canal, Mill Race Canal, and Center Ditch which feed the surrounding sugar beet and grain fields. A notable industrial presence is marked by the Sugar Refinery and Packing Sheds near Leland, situated along the rail lines that facilitated the movement of local produce and minerals.
