About this map

The Sevier River meanders through this mid-1960s landscape, defining the valley's character alongside the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad. Settlements such as Centerfield, Axtell, and Redmond anchor the region's human geography, while smaller locales like Spearmint reflect the area's agricultural and industrial ties. One of the most significant historical markers shown is the Old Indian Treaty Boundary, which cuts across the terrain as a reminder of early land negotiations and territorial divisions.

Industry and resource extraction are evident through numerous Quarries, a Lime Kiln, and an Industrial Waste Pond. To the east, the White Hills rise above the valley floor, home to Willow Creek Reservoir and the Niel Spring. Local history researchers will find value in the detailed placement of the Axtell Cem and the complex irrigation network of the Highland Canal, illustrating how water management shaped this part of Utah.
