About this map

Piute Reservoir dominates the central landscape of this Piute County region, formed by the engineering of the Piute Dam where the Sevier River flows north. The map documents a rugged topography defined by drainage systems and steep-walled features such as Oak Springs Canyon, Bellyache Canyon, and Rudd Hollow. Historical human presence is marked by Howes Cemetery located north of the reservoir near Thompsonville RD.

Transportation and infrastructure patterns are clearly visible, from the Junction Airport near the southern border to the network of established routes like Old HWY 89 and 10 Mile RD. The geography showcases the intersection of natural watercourses like Manning Creek and City Creek with modern recreational and utility sites, including the Piute Campground situated on the western shore of the reservoir.
