About this map

Arches National Park defines the northwestern reaches of this Grand County landscape, where the famous Delicate Arch stands as a primary landmark above Winter Camp Wash. The Colorado River carves a deep path through the center of the sheet, creating prominent features like the Big Bend and navigating through Rocky Rapids and White Rapids. South of the river, the residential layout of Castle Valley emerges, oriented along roads like Castle Valley Dr and Mountain Loop Rd. This area is characterized by a mix of high-desert terrain and river-bottom geography, including the dramatic elevations of Parriott Mesa and Porcupine Rim. Local history is anchored at the Castle Valley Cem and Red Cliffs Cem, while the drainage systems of Professor Valley and Cache Valley illustrate the complex erosion patterns of the Colorado Plateau.
