About this map

Junction serves as a focal point in this high-desert valley, anchored by the Piute County Court House and surrounded by a network of essential water management systems. The landscape is defined by the Sevier River and its East Fork Sevier River, which feed into the large Piute Reservoir to the north. This 2023 survey illustrates the complex irrigation infrastructure of the Marysvale Valley and Circle Valley, where the West Canal, Kingston Canal, and Lost Creek Canal distribute water across the arid floor.

To the east, the terrain rises sharply into Kingston Canyon, while the western edge is dominated by the Tushar Mountains. Small settlements like Kingston and the northern edge of Circleville appear alongside rural landmarks such as Junction Cem and Kingston Cem. The southern portion of the map transitions into the protected lands of the Dixie National Forest, featuring high-elevation points like Table Mtn and remote water sources including Smiths Reservoir and Corral Flat Reservoir.
