Long Valley serves as the central corridor for this part of southern Utah, where the East Fork Virgin River winds between steep canyon walls and expansive plateaus. The settlements of Orderville, Glendale, and Mount Carmel are positioned along this river valley, which has long been a vital north-south passage through the high desert. To the east, the landscape rises sharply into the Elkheart Cliffs and the Glendale Bench, while the western side is dominated by a complex network of drainages including Mineral Gulch and Tait Canyon. Local history is anchored at the Orderville Cem and marked by landmarks such as the Orderville Towers. The intricate topography of Cove Canyon and Lydias Canyon demonstrates the erosive power of the water systems like Muddy Creek that have carved through the colored rock layers of the region.
