2010 Map of Strong

About this map

The Sevier River winds through this arid Millard County landscape, heavily managed by a network of irrigation and water storage infrastructure. The D M A D Reservoir dominates the western half of the map, contained by the D M A D Dam and a secondary Diversion Dam. These structures facilitate the distribution of water into a series of conduits, including Canal A and the Central Utah Canal, supporting agriculture in this desert region. The settlement of Strong sits at a crossroads where the river system meets rural routes like W 800 S. To the east, the terrain transitions into the Oak Creek Sinks, where ephemeral drainage features like Big Gully reveal the natural hydrology of the Great Basin floor before it was altered by early 21st-century water management.
