About this map

Torrey and Teasdale anchor this high-desert landscape where irrigation and rugged geography meet. The Fremont River flows eastward, diverted by the Torrey Canal to support agriculture near Poverty Flat. The settlement pattern follows the river valley and the base of the Teasdale Bench, while the surrounding terrain is defined by dramatic geological formations like Velvet Ridge, The Ant Hill, and Cooks Mesa.

Public lands dominate the north and south, with the Fishlake National Forest and Dixie National Forest providing a backdrop for numerous recreational routes, including the Great Western Trail-Loa and various numbered forest trails. Genealogists and local historians can locate the Teasdale Cem and Torrey Cem, as well as industrial features like a Rock Quarry and water management sites including Coleman Reservoir and the Donkey Cr drainage.
