About this map

Pollys Peak stands as a prominent landmark overlooking the complex drainage systems of Juab and Sanpete counties in central Utah. The landscape is defined by its numerous eponymous "hollows" and washes, carving through the high-elevation terrain to reveal a network of seasonal water sources. Features such as Water Hollow, Serviceberry Hollow, and Cottonwood Spring Hollow indicate a terrain where water management and natural springs, like House Spring and Whitaker Springs, have historically dictated land use and movement.

A developing residential footprint is visible in the northeastern corner, where named roads like Wildwood Rd, Oakerhollow Dr, and Hideaway Hollow Rd wind through the hillsides near Cedar Hills. This modern encroachment contrasts with the vast, undeveloped sections to the south and west, where the Big Hollow drainage and the North Fork Mud Spring Wash remain dominated by the natural topography of the Great Basin region.
