1948 Map of Timpanogos Cave

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Timpanogos Cave National Monument centers this 1948 survey, showcasing the subterranean geography of Timpanogos Cave and Hansen Cave carved into the limestone of the Wasatch Range. The landscape is defined by steep glacial features, including Pika Cirque, Primrose Cirque, and the Timpanogos Basin beneath Roberts Horn. This mid-century view captures the infrastructure of the Uinta National Forest before major modern expansions, featuring the Timpooneke Guard Sta and the South Fork Ranger Sta along the American Fork river. Human impact on the high-elevation terrain is visible through the engineering of the Salt Lake City Aqueduct and several Prospects near Box Elder. Travel through the canyon follows the winding Alpine Scenic Highway, providing access to the recreational camp at Mutual Dell and the high alpine waters of Emerald Lake.
