2020 Map of Bowdie Canyon West
USGS Topo · Published 2020About this map
Lake Powell and the Colorado River dominate this desert landscape where the borders of Garfield and San Juan counties meet. The river's path is marked by dramatic elevation changes, including the Dark Canyon Rapids near the mouth of Dark Canyon. This 2020 survey illustrates the high-plateau topography of the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, featuring prominent landmarks like Dry Mesa and Tar Cliff. Local water sources and catchment features, such as Cove Spring and Freddies Cistern, are vital markers in this arid environment. The sheer verticality of the terrain is evident in the naming of Rockfall Canyon and Fault Point, while the presence of Sweet Alice Rd provides one of the few named access routes through the eastern portion of the quadrangle near Middle Point.
