2020 Map of Hinckley

About this map

Irrigation infrastructure and the winding course of the Sevier River dominate this Millard County landscape, centered on the historic settlements of Hinckley and Deseret. A sophisticated network of man-made waterways, including the Abraham Canal, Highline Canal, and Will Ruben Canal, illustrates the intensive water management required to support this agricultural valley. Near the town of Oasis, the landscape transitions toward wetlands and seasonal basins such as Cocklebur Lake and Deep Lake. Local genealogy is anchored by the Hinckley City Cem and Deseret City Cem, while the Gunnison Bend Reservoir serves as a major landmark in the northeast. The presence of numerous named ditches like Nielson-Ditch and Blake-Ditch reveals a highly subdivided system of water rights and land use, tracing a pattern of settlement and reclamation that has defined this portion of the Great Basin for generations.
