About this map

Holden sits at the foot of the Pahvant Range in Millard County, positioned where the desert meets the mountains. The town is marked by a grid of numbered streets and the Holden Cem, reflecting a long-established settlement pattern in the Pahvant Valley. To the west, the landscape is defined by agricultural infrastructure, notably the Central Utah Canal and a network of county roads like Co RD 4571 that service the fields surrounding the small community of Greenwood.

The eastern portion of the map climbs sharply into high terrain, including Bald Mtn, Cedar Mtn, and Red Cedar Hill. This area is carved by drainage features such as Pioneer Wash and North Canyon. Water management is central to the area's survival, evidenced by the numerous ditches and creeks, including Pioneer Cr, Johnson Ditch, and Wild Goose Cr, which channel mountain runoff toward the valley floor.
