Shirley Basin provides the expansive backdrop for this high-desert landscape in Carbon County, where water management is the primary defining feature of the terrain. The presence of numerous small-scale catchments, including Measel Spring Reservoir, Junction Reservoir, and Section 20 Reservoir, illustrates the intensive effort to capture runoff in a semi-arid environment for local agricultural or livestock needs.
