Sevier River

river, Utah, United States

the longest river entirely within the state of Utah, U.S. The Sevier flows about 325 miles (523 km) along a horseshoe-shaped course north from Kane county, central Utah, turning west at Delta and then south to its terminus in Sevier Lake, Millard county. It drains an area of 5,500 square miles (14,245 square km). Spanish explorers named it the Rio Severo (Spanish: “wild river”) and the name was anglicized to Sevier. The river provided an avenue for the Mormon settlement of what had been Paiute and Goshute Indian territory; numerous towns and hamlets now line its banks. Dammed at several points, the river is intensively used for agriculture.
