1968 Map of Koosharem

About this map

Grass Valley serves as the focal point for settlement and agriculture on this high-plateau map, where the small community of Koosharem sits near the Sevier and Piute County line. The valley floor is marked by a complex system of water management including a Canal and an Aqueduct to support local irrigation. To the west, the land rises sharply into the Fish Lake National Forest, dominated by the massive Cove Mountain. This transition from the structured fields of the valley to the wilder terrain of Monument Peak and Indian Peak illustrates the dual nature of the region's economy, balancing valley farming with upland grazing and timber. High-altitude landmarks like Magleby Pass and the isolated cabins at Milos Kitchen indicate the historical movement of people and livestock between the fertile lowlands and the rugged forest interior.
