Pahva Nits

The Pahvant, also known as Pahva-nits, were a Ute people of the Sevier River country. Their homeland included the valley west of the Wasatch and the Pahvant Mountains, where the basin's broad lowlands meet higher slopes. The Sevier gathers water from the mountains but does not reach the sea, ending instead in an inland lake. The Pahvant maintained close connections with neighbouring Southern Paiute communities, as well as with other peoples of the region.
