2014 Map of Castle Dale

About this map

Castle Dale and Orangeville anchor this 2014 survey of the central Castle Valley. The landscape is defined by its complex irrigation and industrial water management, featuring the Clipper Canal, Dooley Ditch, and the Emery Plant Reservoir alongside the Utah Power and Light Ash Reservoir. This infrastructure supports a region characterized by prominent geological benches, including Buzzard Bench and Johnson Bench, which overlook the winding course of Cottonwood Cr. Local genealogy and settlement history are preserved through the Castle Dale City Cemetery and Orangeville Cemetery, while the outlying areas show the enduring presence of rural homesteads like Fox Ranch and Blackburns Ranch. Further south, the town of Clawson sits near Peavine Wash, marking the lower extent of this plateau-dominated terrain where desert washes like Paulson Wash and Grimes Wash carve through the sedimentary layers.
