About

Imported description
Sevier Canyon, also known as Marysvale Canyon, lies along the Paiute and Sevier County lines. Utah State Highway 89 runs directly down its course along the west side, with the Sevier River in its bottom. The river attracts rafters, tubers, fishermen, campers, and has a developed and popular bike path running along the East side of the river to the resort of Big Rock Cany Mountain. Access to the trail can be found at the mouth of the canyon, Joseph, Elsinore, and Central. Access is planned to be available through the town of Richfield as the trail continues to be developed. The scenic views in Sevier Canyon are excellent.

From Wikipedia

The Sevier River is a 400-mile (640 km)-long river in the Great Basin of southwestern Utah in the United States. Originating west of Bryce Canyon National Park, the river flows north through a chain of high farming valleys and steep canyons along the west side of the Sevier Plateau before turning southwest and terminating in the endorheic basin of Sevier Lake in the Sevier Desert. It is used extensively for irrigation along its course, with the consequence that Sevier Lake is usually dry.
