2014 Map of Adamsville

About this map

Adamsville serves as the focal point of this western Utah survey, situated at the confluence of the Beaver River and the northern reaches of the Minersville Reservoir. The landscape transition is stark, moving from the irrigated flats served by the Furnace Ditch and the Adamsville Bench into the steep, spring-fed elevations of the Mineral Mountains. Genealogists will find the Adamsville Cem clearly marked just east of the main settlement along E Main St. Higher elevations to the west and north are defined by numerous named features such as Harkley Mtn, Soldier Pass, and Granite Peak Reservoir. The distribution of water sources like Rock Corral Spring and Dripping Spring highlights the historical importance of localized hydrology for ranching and travel in this arid terrain, while the rugged drainage patterns of Lincoln Gulch and Granite Canyon reveal the complex topography surrounding the community.
