Deer Creek Reservoir is located in the eastern foothills of the Wasatch Mountains in west-central Utah, USA, on the border of Utah and Summit Counties, about 64 kilometers south of Salt Lake City, and is one of the major water resources projects in Utah. The reservoir was built in the mid-20th century, managed by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, and is mainly used to irrigate farmland in the Utah Valley, as well as to provide a source of drinking water for the Salt Lake metropolitan area, both flood control and power generation functions. With a water area of about 13 square kilometers, surrounded by coniferous forests and mountain meadows, and often inhabited by eagles, geese and other migratory birds in winter, the reservoir is a popular recreational destination for visitors to enjoy fishing, boating, camping and other activities, as well as the magnificent mountain views of Provo Bay.
