Scofield

Scofield combines a secluded high-country setting with an industrial past in a way that reflects its position near Scofield Reservoir in central Utah. Created by Scofield Dam on the Price River, the reservoir lies on the Wasatch Plateau within Manti-La Sal National Forest and supports boating, fishing and winter recreation. Coal mining shaped the community’s story: in 1900, the Winter Quarters mine explosion near Scofield killed 200 miners, making it one of the deadliest mining disasters in United States history. The settlement remains small, with forested slopes and reservoir shoreline defining its rural setting far from Utah’s metropolitan Wasatch Front.
