2017 Map of Upton

About this map

Upton and its surrounding drainage systems define this section of Summit County, where the high-altitude landscape is deeply etched by Chalk Cr and its various tributaries. Located at the junction of N Huff Creek Rd and E Chalk Creek Rd, the small settlement of Upton serves as a focal point in a region characterized by steep ridges and narrow valleys. To the northeast, the Porcupine Reservoir is fed by Huff Cr and Porcupine Cr, situated just below the prominent Porcupine Ridge. This 2017 survey details the complex topography of the Wasatch Range foothills, including family-named landmarks like Josh Hollow and the quiet Upton Cem, providing a precise look at the land use and water management patterns essential to this high-country environment.
