Beaver Lake Mountains is an 8-mile (13 km) long[1] mountain in central and north Beaver County, Utah, United States[2] adjacent the south border of Millard County.
The mountain is bordered on the east by the Beaver River, as it flows due-north past Milford and the small Milford Valley; the river leaves the southeast section of the Escalante Desert, but the Beaver River comes from the east, Beaver Valley and the south terminus of the Mineral Mountains-(Minersville Reservoir).
The Beaver River flows due north to meet the Sevier River, but agricultural use prevents continuous flow through the southwest Sevier Desert region.
