About this map

Beaver serves as the focal point of this modern topographical study, situated at the intersection of a complex historical irrigation network and the high desert landscape. The town's layout is defined by a rigid grid of residential streets like W 600 North St and E 300 South St, buffered to the east by the Beaver City Cem and Mountain View Cem. This area demonstrates the critical role of water management in Utah's development, evidenced by the numerous named ditches and sloughs including City Ditch, Greenwood Slough, and the S Field Ditch.

To the north and west, the terrain rises toward distinctive landforms such as The Hogback and Last Chance Bench. The mapping of small outlying settlements like Manderfield and Greenville, the latter featuring its own Greenville Cem, provides essential data for genealogists tracing family roots in the valley. The passage of the Beaver River and the presence of Adobe Yard Spring further underscore the hydrological foundations of the local community.
