About this map

Glen Canyon National Recreation Area dominates this landscape, where the waters of Lake Powell meet the high desert plateau of San Juan County. Surveyed in the 1980s, the map reveals a complex system of drainage and erosion, from the wide expanse of Browns Rim to the deep incisions of White Canyon and Farley Canyon. This era shows the Colorado plateau as both a protected recreational zone and a site of persistent industrial interest, evidenced by the Happy Jack Mine and other unnamed mining operations tucked into the mesas.
