Where the Waterfalls Are

Snyderville sits in or near the Uinta Mountains area of Utah. The Uinta Mountains are unusual for running east to west, and their high plateau was heavily glaciated, leaving lakes, meadows and steep river descents. Provo River Falls, along the Mirror Lake Highway east of Kamas, is a series of cascades over stepped bedrock ledges that can be seen from roadside overlooks. Other falls in Summit County lie farther into the range near Francis and Kamas. On the north and east slopes, Daggett and Uintah counties include canyon country around Flaming Gorge; the historic Ashley Falls on the Green River now lies beneath Flaming Gorge Reservoir, a reminder of how much river terrain the dam submerged.
