1988 Map of Cleopatras Chair

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The Green River carves a deep path through the desert in the late 1980s, marking the convergence of two major federal protected areas. This landscape is defined by its dramatic verticality, where the Orange Cliffs and Benches rise above the waterway as it flows through Stillwater Canyon. The map details the border between Canyonlands National Park and the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, highlighting unique geological formations such as the namesake Cleopatras Chair and the Buttes of the Cross. Historical travel routes and geographical milestones are evident at river crossings and lowlands like Bonita Bend, Anderson Bottom, and Spanish Bottom. These features underscore the importance of the river corridor for access and navigation within the remote canyons of Wayne and San Juan counties.
