Notom has been called "an oasis in the desert". In a harsh, rather bleak landscape, that is an accurate description and it is because there is water. Water is more valuable than gold. Notom has the primary water right of 6.3 cfs. on Pleasant Creek from April 1 to November 1. Pleasant Creek is one of only two stream flows in Utah and has it's head waters on the Boulder Mountain. The water travels a number of miles before it reaches Notom and flows into the head of the ditch. This ditch was constructed over a 100 years ago by George Durfey with horses and scrapers and with the use of a homemade level. There have been improvements, in the form of sluish gates and pipelines but the original ditch remains. As you look out at fields of alfalfa, green pastures where cows and horses graze, and apricot, almond, and apple trees laden with fruit, you realize that water is truly the "lifeblood" of this arid land. Farm equipment including Swather, bailer, 2 tractors, backhoe, sprayers, marker mower, blade, gopher getter, harrow, disc, Cabot to be included
