About this map

Springville and Mapleton sit at the base of the Wasatch Range, where the steep topography of the Uinta National Forest meets the developed valley floor. The map highlights a community defined by its water and agricultural infrastructure, including the State Fish Hatchery and several creeks emerging from deep canyons like Hobble Creek and Slate Canyon. The presence of the Denver and Rio Grande Western railroad and industrial markers such as a Radio Facility and Grain Bins underscore the town's role as a regional transit and processing hub.

On the eastern bench, the transition from urban to wild is sharp, moving from Mapleton School to the high elevations of Provo Peak and Buckley Mountain. This interface is marked by recreational and utility features, including a Drive-in Theater, numerous gravel pits, and a network of 4WD trails leading into the hollows. Genealogists will find significant detail in the locations of City Cem and Evergreen Cem, along with various local schools serving the growing residential districts.
