About this map

The Malad River meanders south through this Box Elder County landscape, flanked by the agricultural settlements of Fielding, Riverside, and Plymouth. To the west, the terrain rises sharply into the West Hills, a dissected upland defined by deep drainages such as Marlow Canyon, Butler Canyon, and Magpie Canyon. The transition from the rugged western heights to the river valley is marked by the engineering of the West Canal, which skirts the base of the slopes to support local irrigation.

Genealogists will find three distinct burial sites within a small radius: Fielding City Cem, Riverside Cem, and Garland Cem. Transportation and utility infrastructure are prominent, with the north-south corridors of Ut-13 and Interstate 15 paralleling the river, while Fielding Siding indicates the area's historical connection to rail transport. The presence of Uddy Hot Springs near the river adds a unique geothermal dimension to the local topography.
