1960 Map of Grand Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

The Colorado River winds through a massive corridor of plateaus and canyons at the mid-century, long before the modern tourism infrastructure of the region was fully realized. The isolation of the northern strip is evident in the sparse placement of settlements like Supai and the Mt Trumbull PO, connected by a network of unimproved roads and trails. High elevation landforms including the Kaibab Plateau and Shivwits Plateau dictate the movement of travelers across the landscape.
