Minersville

Tucked between the Mineral Mountains and the Beaver River valley in western Utah, Minersville is a place whose character is shaped by high-desert terrain and a mining past. The town stands close to Minersville Reservoir, an impoundment on the Beaver River that brings a band of water and shoreline to this otherwise dry interior setting. Founded in 1859 by Latter-day Saint settlers, Minersville took its name from the prospecting and mineral extraction that drew attention to the area. Its modest scale and broad basin setting place it firmly in the rural geography of Beaver County, away from Utah’s larger urban corridors.
