About this map

Orderville, Glendale, and Mount Carmel anchor this 2020 topographical study of Kane County, situated within the distinctive corridor of Long Valley. The landscape is defined by the E Fork Virgin River and a dense network of drainages including Meadow Cr and Muddy Cr. The geography transitions from the high, flat Glendale Bench down through the striking Elkheart Cliffs, revealing the complex erosion patterns that have carved numerous hollows and canyons such as Coal Hollow, Red Hollow, and Bishop Canyon.

Cultural landmarks and local roads provide essential context for researchers. Features such as the Orderville Cem and family-named landmarks like Gardner Hollow and Madison Canyon offer specific points of interest for genealogical study. The map also traces modern infrastructure and rural routes like Muddy Creek Rd and Lydia's Canyon Rd, showing the continued settlement patterns along the canyon floors and plateau edges.
