Wasatch County, Administrative county in north-central Utah, US
Wasatch County stretches across mountain ranges and valleys, containing Heber City as its capital and numerous outdoor recreation areas at 5,595 feet elevation.
The county formation occurred in 1862, when pioneer settlers established communities in the region, with Heber City becoming a central point for development.
The Heber Valley Historic Railroad maintains connections to transportation heritage through educational programs and seasonal train experiences for visitors and residents.
Residents access county services through an updated website system, which handles property taxes, permits, and official documentation for the growing population.
The county maintains three substantial water reservoirs - Jordanelle, Deer Creek, and Strawberry - supporting both recreation activities and water management systems.
