Paria and its surrounding desert topography define this corner of southern Utah, where the Paria River and Cottonwood Creek carve through the sedimentary landscape. This 2023 survey documents a region defined by dramatic geological formations, including The Rimrocks and the vast Brigham Plains. The presence of the Pahreah Cem near the old settlement site provides a vital point of reference for genealogists and local historians tracking the early pioneers who attempted to farm this arid valley.
