About this map

Pine Grove and its namesake reservoir sit at the base of the eastern slopes of the Wah Wah Mountains in this high-desert landscape of western Utah. The terrain is defined by steep canyons and drainage systems that collect intermittent runoff, including Moonshine Canyon and Rose Spring Canyon. Water management is central to the area's geography, as seen in the presence of Pine Grove Reservoir and Woods Reservoir, which capture flows from the surrounding peaks to support the local environment and land use.

Lower elevations are dominated by broad alluvial fans and washes, notably Pine Valley Wash and the southern-flowing Sheep Cr. The north-south corridor of Pine Valley Rd provides the primary access through this territory, connecting the small settlement of Pine Grove with the wider region. Several drainages, such as Indian Cr and Commissary Cr, carve through the western portion of the map, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Great Basin's basin-and-range topography.
