About this map

The Sevier River winds through the southwestern corner of this landscape, carving through Sevier Canyon as it flows toward the more open terrain of the north. This high-desert region in Juab County is defined by a complex system of drainage basins and mountain valleys that transition from the narrow confines of the river canyon to the broader expanses of Sage Valley. A network of unpaved roads and trails provides access to the interior, where the West Fork Reservoir serves as a critical point of water management in an otherwise arid environment.

The topography is marked by several distinct basins, including Little Sage Valley and the various branches of the main valley system, such as West Fork Sage Valley, Middle Fork Sage Valley, and East Fork Sage Valley. In the northern reaches, Dog Valley and its associated Dog Valley Wash indicate the seasonal flow patterns that shape this portion of the Great Basin, reflecting a landscape used primarily for ranching and resource management in the early twenty-first century.
