About this map

Adamsville serves as the focal point for this survey of southwestern Utah, situated at the edge of the Minersville Reservoir and the Beaver River. The landscape is defined by the steep elevation changes of the Mineral Mountains, where numerous named canyons and hollows like Beaumont Canyon and Solomons Hollow drain toward the valley floor. Water management is a critical theme of this arid region, evidenced by the presence of the Furnace Ditch and several isolated springs such as Rock Corral Spring and Dripping Spring.

Transport through the high terrain is marked by Soldier Pass and the winding route of The Pass Rd, which skirts the base of Harkley Mtn. Genealogists and local historians will find the Adamsville Cem located just east of the main settlement along Main St, providing a specific point of reference for the community's early residents. The map captures a high-desert environment where early irrigation efforts like Furnace Ditch meet modern conservation and recreation at Granite Peak Reservoir.
