The Sevier River valley dominates this landscape, where a complex network of agricultural irrigation defines the settlement pattern of the early 21st century. At Bear Valley Junction, transportation routes converge near the winding path of Bear Creek, while the small community of Spry sits further south along the river. The map reveals an extensive system of water management essential to this arid region, featuring the Panguitch Canal, Barton Tebbs Lefevre Canal, and several named ditches like the McEwen Ditch and Marshall Ditch. These man-made watercourses follow the natural contours of the land, navigating around geographic features such as Tebbs Hollow and Wide Hollow. This survey provides a precise record of rural land use, showing how named roads like River Lane Rd and Sand Wash Rd connect the scattered homesteads and pastures that rely on the Sanford Creek drainage system.
