About this map

The small settlement of Neola serves as the focal point of this agricultural landscape in Duchesne County, where an intricate network of irrigation systems defines the geography. Reaching across the high desert terrain, features like the Yellowstone Feeder Canal, Uintah Canal, and Cedarview Canal represent the essential water management infrastructure that has sustained local ranching and farming. These canals, alongside numerous numbered laterals like Lateral Number 1 and Lateral Number 5, dominate the grid-like pattern of the region.

Genealogists can find significant local history in the area's rural burial grounds, including Greenhalgh Cem, Neola Cem, and Monarch Cem near the community of Monarch. The topography transitions from the flat expanses of John Starr Flat and Nephi Bench to the more complex drainages of Coyote Basin and Cottonwood Canyon. Roads such as Boulder Blvd and Cottonwood Canyon Rd provide access through these landmarks, tracing the historical paths that connect these remote High Uintas foothills.
