2023 Map of Firewater Canyon North

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

The Green River carves a deep, winding path through the heart of Desolation Canyon in this part of Uintah and Carbon Counties. The landscape is defined by its dramatic verticality, where high plateaus like Peters Point and North Point drop away into complex drainage systems. River navigation is marked by a series of significant whitewater obstacles, including Jack Creek Rapids, Big Canyon Rapids, and the aptly named Firewater Rapids. These geological features tell the story of a river cutting through ancient strata, creating isolated pockets of level ground such as Rock House Bottom along the water's edge.
