About this map

Loa serves as the focal point of this Wayne County landscape, situated where the high-elevation valleys meet the life-giving waters of the Fremont River. The settlement's grid is clearly defined by local thoroughfares like S Main St and W 100 N, while its agricultural reliance is evident through the path of the Loa Town Ditch. This 2011 survey details a complex water management system essential to the arid climate, tracing the courses of Road Creek and Spring Creek as they drain toward the valley floor.

Beyond the town limits, the terrain is dotted with vital water sources such as Bullberry Spring, Riley Canyon Spring, and Potter Spring. These natural features, along with specialized infrastructure like TV Tower Rd, illustrate the land's utility for both livestock grazing and modern communications. The geography reveals a transition from the structured residential blocks of the village to the expansive rangelands that define this portion of south-central Utah.
