2017 Map of Delta

About this map

The Sevier River and a sophisticated network of man-made waterways define this agricultural region in Millard County. The settlement of Delta serves as the primary hub, surrounded by an intricate system of irrigation infrastructure including the Lyman Ditch, Melville E Canal, and Jones Ditch. This geography illustrates the intensive water management required to sustain desert farming, with the Gunnison Bend Reservoir providing a significant local landmark and water source. Further south, the smaller community of Oasis sits near its own namesake Oasis Canal. Genealogists and local historians can locate specific sites such as the Delta City Cem and the Oasis Cem, while transportation is represented by the Delta Municipal Airport and a rigid grid of county roads that carve the landscape into sections, reflecting the township and range divisions of t17s r7w and t18s r6w.
