Grantsville combines an agricultural small-town character with ready access to the Wasatch Front in a way that reflects its position in Tooele Valley between the Stansbury and Oquirrh mountains. The city lies west of the Oquirrh range and south of the Great Salt Lake, where open valley land has long supported farms and ranches. Settled in 1850 by Latter-day Saint pioneers, Grantsville maintains a distinct local tradition in the annual Old Folks Sociable, which dates to 1875. The nearby Stansbury Mountains provide a higher backdrop to a city otherwise shaped by broad basin terrain.
