About this map

Circleville sits at the eastern edge of the Circle Valley, where the Sevier River flows northward toward the narrows of Circleville Canyon. This modern survey documents the high desert landscape where the agricultural water network, including the Kingston Canal and Lost Cr Canal, meets the rising terrain of the Fishlake National Forest. The map details the transition from the grid-iron streets of the settlement to the complex topography of the west, characterized by numerous drainages such as Bullberry Cr and Birch Cr.

Genealogists and local historians will find the location of the Circleville Cem and the various family-named geographic features significant. The western reaches are dominated by distinct topographic basins and flats, such as Betenson Flat and Oak Basin, while prominent heights like Parker Peak mark the southern boundary near the Garfield County line. The extensive network of forest roads and trails, including the Paiute (D-3), highlights the region's contemporary use for access into the high timber and canyon lands.
