1962 Map of Grandview Point

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Grandview Point serves as the primary anchor for this landscape where the South Rim meets the high elevations of the Coconino National Forest. The map illustrates a transitional environment on the Coconino Plateau, characterized by the Kaibab Rim and the Upper Basin. Settlement and travel infrastructure are focused on historical access points to the canyon, notably the Moqui Stage Station (Site) and the Grandview Lookout Tower. The drainage patterns of the Coconino Wash and several named potholes and tanks, such as Lockett Lake and Twin Lakes, indicate the essential water management of the era. To the northeast, the dramatic landforms of Lee Canyon and the Sinking Ship stand out against the forested plateau, while the Ranger Station and various gravel pits suggest the active management and maintenance of this gateway to the canyon during the early 1960s.
