About this map

Porterville sits at the northern end of this survey, where the waters of East Canyon Cr and Hardscrabble Cr converge within Morgan Valley. The map details a landscape defined by its deep drainages and named hollows, such as Taggart Hollow, Spring Hollow, and Tucker Hollow, which carve into the surrounding Wasatch Range. A notable local landmark is the uniquely named Field of Dreams Airport, located just west of the main settlement area.

South of the valley floor, the terrain climbs steeply into the Wasatch National Forest. This section is characterized by its network of canyons, including Cataract Canyon and Horseshoe Canyon, alongside numerous family-named landmarks like Joe Durrant Hollow. The presence of the Porterville Cem and established routes like Hardscrabble Rd and Woods Creek Rd provides essential points of reference for those researching local family history or land use patterns in this part of Morgan County.
