Visions In Provo, Utah


Prove,  Utah has  a population of about 117,000, Its  located in north-central Utah, approximately 45 miles south of Salt Lake City. Provo is the county seat of Utah County


Utah County is part of what is referred to as the "Wasatch Front," which is made up by Weber, Davis, Salt Lake, and Utah Counties.


Provo was apparently the first settlement, getting its name from the Provo River, which in turn took its name from the mountain man, Etienne Provost. 



Brigham Young University traces its roots to Utah's rich pioneer heritage. The original school, Brigham Young Academy, was established Oct. 16, 1875, on a little over one acre of land in what is now downtown Provo.
