About this map

Orderville and Mount Carmel anchor this 2017 survey of the Long Valley corridor, a region defined by the winding course of the E Fork Virgin River and the dramatic verticality of the Elkheart Cliffs. The settlement pattern follows the narrow fertile stretches along the river, where residential streets like S Center St and Pinyon Pine Dr meet the primary artery of W State St. Local history and genealogy are anchored at the Orderville Cem and the Po, situated just south of Gardner Hollow.

The surrounding backcountry is a complex network of canyons and drainage systems, from the remote Hellhole Canyon and Reubs Canyon in the north to Cove Canyon and Winsor Cove near the southern settlements. This map highlights the geographical transition between the high plateaus and the valley floor, specifically where the Glendale Bench Elkheart Cliffs loom over the river. Notable landmarks like Muddy Point and named hollows such as Coal Hollow and Calf Pasture Hollow provide clear spatial markers for those studying the southern Utah landscape.
