About this map

The Sevier River winds through this Juab County landscape, defining a wide basin characterized by The Meadows and Mills Valley. The small settlement of Mills serves as a central point, situated near the Mills Cem and a network of rural roads such as Mills Rd and Mecham Rd. This 2020 survey illustrates the modern hydrologic and transport systems of the area, where the river eventually feeds into the expansive Sevier Bridge Reservoir at the southern end of the quadrangle.

Several distinct topographical features rise from the valley floor, including the steep Badeau Ridge and the unusually named The Washboard to the east. Water sources are frequent despite the arid surroundings, with Blue Springs, Molten Spring, and Chase Springs dotted across the lowlands. The presence of Old Hwy 91 and Old State Rte 78 suggests the evolution of travel through this corridor, connecting isolated valleys like Little Valley to the broader regional infrastructure.
