2020 Map of Deep Canyon North
USGS Topo · Published 2020About this map
Piute Canyon and Deep Canyon dominate the southern reaches of this landscape, where deep drainages carve through the high plateaus of San Juan County. This 2020 map documents the complex topography of the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, centered on the confluence of the San Juan River and its various flooded tributaries. The rise of reservoir waters has transformed former river bottoms into features like Piute Bay and the San Juan Arm, leaving high landmarks such as Grey Mesa and Wilson Mesa as prominent overlooks. The geography recorded here captures the modern state of the shoreline as it winds through Neskahi Wash and into the San Juan Valley, illustrating how the desert terrain has been reshaped by the presence of Lake Powell.
