About this map

The Marysvale Valley is dominated by the expansive Piute Reservoir, a central water body fed by the Sevier River and a network of mountain drainage such as Manning Creek and Tenmile Creek. This early 21st-century survey reveals the convergence of natural waterways and human engineering, including the protected lands of Piute Lake State Park and the rugged eastern edge of the Fishlake National Forest.

Resource extraction and local infrastructure are visible throughout the landscape, from the Junction Airport near the southern corporate boundary to numerous Mine and Prospect sites in the western foothills. Genealogists may find interest in the Howes Cem near the river or the small Cem located near City Creek. The map also details colorful local nomenclature in its topography, such as Bellyache Canyon and Rudd Hollow.
