2017 Map of Loa

About this map

Loa and Fremont anchor the high agricultural landscape of Rabbit Valley in this detailed 2017 study of central Utah. The irrigation network, vital to high-altitude farming, is clearly traced through features like the Fremont Loa Ditch and the Loa Town Ditch drawing from the Fremont River. The terrain transitions sharply from the fertile valley floor to the soaring Awapa Plateau and the southern reaches of the Fishlake National Forest. Local history is preserved in the location of the Loa Cem and Fremont Cem, while the landscape is defined by its numerous named springs and hollows. Unique place names such as Behind Chappell Cheese Rd and Row of Pines Bench provide specific geographic markers for genealogists and local researchers examining the historic land use and settlement patterns of Wayne County.
