About this map

The Beaver River meanders through this Millard County landscape, defining a north-south corridor of hydrology in a predominantly arid basin. This 2017 topographic study highlights the critical water sources that have sustained life and travel in the region, including the Bloom Trail Reservoir and the geographically significant Coyote Spring and Black Spring. These water points serve as vital landmarks for those navigating the wide-open terrain between the high peaks and the valley floor.

Rising in the southeast, N Twin Peak provides a distinctive vertical reference point amidst the surrounding township and range survey lines. Transportation is marked by remote corridors like Clear Spot Rd, which facilitate access across the desert. The arrangement of springs and reservoirs against the backdrop of the river illustrates a persistent reliance on specific water sources in the Utah interior, reflecting the enduring environmental constraints of the Great Basin.
