About this map

Bryce Canyon National Park dominates the southeastern quadrant of this region, revealing the intricate geological formations of the Pink Cliffs and the sweeping Bryce Amphitheater. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition from the high Paunsaugunt Plateau down into the eroded canyons, where iconic features like the Mormon Temple, Tower Bridge, and Seal Castle are mapped with precision. To the north, the plateau levels out toward Johns Valley and the Bryce Canyon Airport.

Water management and recreation are evident in the path of the Tropic Ditch and the extensive Great Western Trl which traverses the Dixie National Forest. The settlement of Bryce Canyon City serves as a modern gateway to these landforms, located just north of the park entrance. Historical traces remain in the naming of local landmarks such as Pat Willis Draw and John L Swale, marking the early ranching and transit history of Garfield County.
