Millard County lies on the west side of Utah. Its west border abuts the east border of the state of Nevada. The county terrain consists of dry, rough flatlands with numerous hills and mountain ridges. The highest point in the county is Mine Camp Peak in the Central Utah Plateaus, at 10,222 feet. It is the third-largest county in Utah by area. Millard county doesn't get much rain, so vegetation is sparse, except near the Sevier River, where the water helps crops grow well.
