About this map

The settlement of Mayfield serves as the focal point of this 2014 survey, located at the mouth of Twelvemile Canyon where the high desert meets the western edge of the Wasatch Plateau. The grid of the town site is clearly defined, featuring local landmarks such as the Mayfield Cem and the junction of S Highway 137 and N State St. The landscape transitions sharply from the agricultural Arapien Valley in the west to the deeply incised drainages of the Manti-LaSal National Forest and Fishlake National Forest to the east and south.

Water management is central to this arid region, as evidenced by the network of creeks like Twelvemile Cr and Willow Cr that feed into the Willow Cr Reservoir. High-elevation features like Order Mtn and Jacks Flat define the upper reaches of the map, while the border between Sanpete and Sevier counties cuts through the southern portion of the quadrangle, marking a distinct shift in the topographic character of the mountain range.
