2011 Map of Avintaquin Canyon

About this map

Strawberry River flows across the northern reaches of this Duchesne County landscape, carving a path through a series of deep draws and hollows. The area is defined by its canyon systems, most notably Avintaquin Canyon and its associated waterway, Avintaquin Creek, which meanders through the eastern and southern portions of the territory. Isolated family outposts such as Remund Ranch, Baum Ranch, and Peatross Ranch represent the primary human imprint on this high-desert terrain, connected by rugged corridors like Timber Canyon Rd and Avintaquin Rd. The land rises toward prominent landmarks including Long Ridge and Timber Point, while secondary drainages like Poison Creek and Minnie Creek provide vital hydrology for the local ranching economy.
