Its high valleys include communities shaped by rivers, early trails and mining, while Park City grew from a silver-mining town into a mountain resort center. The county was established in 1854 and takes its name from the surrounding high peaks. Headwaters of the Weber, Provo, Bear and Duchesne rivers are part of its varied mountain landscape.
