2023 Map of Piute Reservoir

About this map

Piute Reservoir dominates the central landscape of this southern Utah survey, serving as a primary water catchment for the Sevier River as it flows north through the Marysvale Valley. To the west, the steep slopes of the Tushar Mountains rise into the Fishlake National Forest, deeply incised by drainages like Bellyache Canyon and Oak Springs Canyon. The settlement of Junction anchors the southern portion of the map, situated near where City Creek enters the valley floor. Genealogists will find the small Harris Cem just north of town, while further north near the confluence of Tenmile Creek and the river lies Howes Cem. The map reflects a landscape defined by water management and transit, with Old US Hwy 89 paralleling the western shoreline and various local routes like Piute Res Dam RD providing access to the reservoir's vital infrastructure.
