About this map

The high desert landscape of Minersville is defined by an intricate network of irrigation systems and water management at the base of the Mineral Mountains. This corner of Beaver County relies on features like the Minersville Canal, Low Line Canal, and Utopia Ditch to move water across the Escalante Desert floor. These human-made waterways contrast with natural drainages like the Beaver River and the Big Wash, which feeds into the Big Wash Debris Basin Reservoir.

Genealogists and local historians can locate the Minersville Cemetery north of the town center, while those tracking the geography of southern Utah can trace the descent of the Parowan Canyon Wash as it flows toward the Iron County line. The map highlights the town's grid, including W 100 N St and E 100 S St, marking the domestic core of this agricultural community surrounded by prominent peaks such as Yellow Mtn and Black Mtn.
