Grafton sits along the southern banks of the Virgin River, a settlement established in a landscape defined by dramatic geological formations and deep canyons. This area of Washington County demonstrates a long history of river-valley habitation, where the flatlands of Grafton Mesa and Wire Mesa overlook early pioneer sites. The mapping details the proximity of these early townsites to the towering monoliths of the north, including The West Temple and the Altar of Sacrifice, which loom over the valley floor.
