About this map

Timpanogos Cave National Monument and the surrounding peaks of the Uinta National Forest dominate this 1993 revision, capturing the intersection of subterranean marvels and high-altitude wilderness. The map details the complex terrain of the Timpanogos Wilderness, including Hansen Cave and the dramatic geological features of the Mount Timpanogos massif, such as Pika Cirque and Emerald Lake.

Lower elevations show the expanding residential footprints of Pleasant Grove, Alpine, and Cedar Hills along the base of the Wasatch Range. The critical water infrastructure supporting these communities is clearly visible, with the Jordan Aqueduct, Salt Lake Aqueduct, and Alpine Aqueduct threading through the foothills. This survey records a landscape managed for both intensive recreation, seen in the numerous campgrounds like Granite Flat Campground, and essential regional water management through the Tibble Fork Reservoir.
