About this map

The Vermilion Cliffs form a dramatic geological boundary across this landscape, separating the high Paria Plateau and its Sand Hills from the lower elevations of House Rock Valley. In the northeast, the Cliff Dwellers Lodge stands as a rare point of human habitation near the Soap Creek Bench. The eastern edge of the map is dominated by the deep cut of Marble Canyon, where the Colorado River surges through North Canyon Rapids. This 1985 survey illustrates the intersection of several distinct land managements, including portions of Grand Canyon National Park and the Navajo Indian Reservation. The terrain is characterized by a network of drainage systems like Soap Creek and Emmett Wash, which carve through the benchlands and cliffs toward the river.
