1991 Map of Partoun

About this map

The Deep Creek Range dominates the western landscape of this Juab County region, giving way to the expansive desert flats of the Snake Valley to the east. This 1991 map illustrates a remote high-desert environment where water sources like Blue Spring and Trough Spring were critical for sustaining life and travel. To the northwest, the map shows a portion of the Goshute Indian Reservation, marking the indigenous presence and sovereignty in this arid territory. The small settlement of Partoun sits along the Gandy Road, serving as a focal point for the local community with its West Desert Sch. The terrain transitions from the steep, rugged drainage of Wood Canyon and The Narrows down through the Little Red Cedar Wash toward the valley floor, where industrial Gravel Pits indicate local resource extraction during the late 20th century.
