2017 Map of Sigurd

About this map

Sevier River water management defines this portion of the valley, where an intricate network of irrigation systems including the Piute Canal, Richfield Canal, Venice Canal, and Vermillion Canal support the agricultural settlements. These waterways flank the communities of Sigurd and Vermillion, while Glenwood sits further south near the base of the rising terrain. The area is marked by numerous natural springs, such as Glenwood Spring, Indian Springs, and Parcell Spring, which have long been vital to local life and the hatchery operations at Fish Hatchery Rd. For those tracing local families, the map identifies several burial grounds including the Glenwood Pioneer Cem and Sigurd Cem. East of the river, the landscape transitions into the high desert and ridges of Kings Meadow and Cedar Mtn, where the terrain is punctuated by the Rainbow Hills and the deep cut of Kings Meadow Canyon.
