About this map

Panguitch serves as the central hub of this 1970s landscape, situated where the Sevier River meets Panguitch Creek. The town's grid is well-defined, featuring the local High Sch, a Cem, and the County Fairgrounds. The topography transitions sharply from the irrigated valley floors of East Bench to the rising elevations of Dickinson Hill and the complex drainage systems of Panguitch Hollow and South Canyon.

Evidence of local industry and infrastructure is visible throughout the quadrangle, including a Roller Mill Hill, several Gravel Pits, and a Substation. Smaller landmarks like Riggs Pond and the Rifle Range suggest the social and recreational utility of the land during this era. High-altitude cattle or sheep trails, such as Sheep Hollow, underscore the historical agricultural patterns that defined this part of Garfield County.
