2021 Map of Peach Orchard Flat

About this map

Peach Orchard Flat sits at the center of this high-plains landscape in Carbon County, where the terrain is defined by a network of seasonal drainages and named gulches. The modern topography reveals a complex system of water management infrastructure, including Detention Reservoir 1492 Number 2 and several other numbered detention dams like Detention Dam 1592 Number 1, designed to control runoff through the arid basins. Landforms such as The Bluffs and Robbers Gulch punctuate the landscape, suggesting a history of travel and concealment along the old paths that cross this region.
