2011 Map of Vernon

About this map

Vernon stands as a focal point for this agrarian landscape in Tooele County, anchored by a grid of local roads and the Vernon Cemetery. The mapping reveals a transition between concentrated settlement and the managed grazing lands of the Benmore Experimental Pastures to the south. This area is defined by its drainage systems, where Vernon Creek, Bennion Creek, and Dutch Creek flow through the valley floor. Transportation infrastructure is represented by the Vernon Airstrip and a network of arterial routes like Vernon Rd and Douglas Rd. Local history is embedded in the family-named corridors such as Frederickson Ln and Yates Rd, while the southern reaches near Benmore show a shift toward more specialized agricultural and forest service land use. The presence of the Old Aqueduct Rd hints at the region's managed water resources in this high desert environment.
