About this map

The Provo River and its South Fork Provo River create a central valley corridor through this landscape on the border of Summit and Wasatch counties. Settlement patterns reflect the influence of the river and canyon systems, with Woodland and Samak established as primary hubs near the water. The upper elevations are defined by the transition between the Wasatch National Forest and the Uinta National Forest, managed under the Heber Ranger District.

Resource use and recreation are deeply integrated into the terrain. A local Quarry and various Prospects suggest historical mineral extraction, while a Fish Hatchery and Gaging Station indicate managed water resources. Travelers and residents alike utilized the Mirror Lake Scenic Byway to access sites like Taylor Fork Campground and the Beaver Creek Picnic Area, documenting a mid-to-late 20th-century mountain economy centered on forestry and outdoor tourism.
