About this map

Partoun sits within the high desert landscape of Snake Valley, where the alluvial plains meet the rising slopes of the Deep Creek Range. This 2011 survey captures the sparse settlement and infrastructure of western Juab County, centered around the intersection of the Pony Express Hwy and Snake Valley Rd. The map illustrates a reliance on precious water sources in an arid climate, marking numerous vital points such as Blue Spring, Trough Spring, and Lime Spring along the mountain flanks.

Terrain features dominate the quadrangle, including the prominent heights of Lime Mountain and the drainage patterns of Little Red Cedar Wash and Wood Canyon. The northern reaches are defined by the winding course of Birch Creek and Trout Creek. These geographic landmarks, along with local thoroughfares like Rawlings Blvd, provide a detailed look at the rural land use and topography of this isolated portion of the Great Basin.
