About this map

Pahvant Valley dominates this 1986 topographical study of the arid interior of Millard County, Utah. The landscape is defined by the sharp contrast between the flat valley floor, crisscrossed by an extensive irrigation network of ditches and scattered wells, and the abrupt rising of Beaver Ridge to the west and the foothills of the Fishlake National Forest to the southeast. Historically significant landmarks such as Telegraph Point and the thermal waters at Hot Springs punctuate the northern reaches of the quadrangle. Human activity in this desert environment is sparse, centered on resource extraction at the Gravel Pit and the maintenance of transport routes through the valley, including a modern Rest Area and roads tracking alongside the Dry Wash. The map preserves the exact placement of prominent geographic markers like Sixmile Point and Eightmile Point as they stood in the mid-1980s.
