The Colorado River carves through the northwestern corner of this territory, defining the dramatic transition into Cataract Canyon. This reach of the river marks the boundary between Garfield Co and San Juan Co, where the landscape is dominated by the protected expanses of the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area. The terrain is characterized by high mesas and deep drainages, including the prominent Dark Canyon Plateau and the winding course of Bowdie Canyon.
