About this map

Mud Lake and Terreton serve as the primary hubs in this agricultural landscape of Jefferson County. The region is defined by a sophisticated water management system designed for high-desert cultivation, featuring the Owsley Canal, Crystal Lake Canal, and Second Owsley Canal. These man-made waterways transition from the structured grid of the northern farmland into the more varied topography found south of E 1200 N.

To the north, the North Lake Wildlife Management Area provides a natural contrast to the surrounding section lines and homesteads. Local history is anchored by the West Jefferson Memorial Cem located just west of Terreton, while the Mud Lake/West Jefferson County Airport reflects the area's modern infrastructure. The map preserves several family-named thoroughfares, including Burtenshaw Rd, Siddoway Rd, and Twitchell Rd, which likely trace the footprints of early settler landholdings.
