1948 Map of Timpanogos Cave

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Timpanogos Cave National Monument and the surrounding high-altitude terrain of the Timpanogos Mountains are documented in this 1948 survey, with revisions updated through 1969. The map details the subterranean wonders of Hansen Cave and Timpanogos Cave along the canyon walls of the American Fork river. The landscape is a study in verticality, transitioning from the lower elevations of Sagebrush Flat and the South Fork Ranger Station to the high glacial features of the Timpanogos Basin, including Emerald Lake and Pika Cirque. Human infrastructure in the Uinta National Forest is clearly marked, from the Salt Lake City Aqueduct to the winding Alpine Scenic Highway. Notable for those tracing the development of recreation and resource management in the Wasatch Range, the map includes sites like Mutual Dell and the Timpooneke Guard Station, alongside numerous unnamed prospects that speak to the area's mining history.
