About this map

Lake Powell dominates the southern and eastern portions of this landscape, marking the intersection of the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area and the dramatic geological formations of south-central Utah. The rugged boundary between Garfield and Kane counties runs through the center of the map, where the high elevation of Hall Mesa provides a stark contrast to the descending drainage of Bullfrog Cr.

Transport through this desert environment is defined by the Burr Trl, which winds across the northern terrain toward the jagged uplift of the Water Pocket Fold. To the northwest, the protected reaches of Capitol Reef National Park encompass the Halls Creek and Narrows, illustrating a complex network of canyons and washes that feed into Halls Creek Bay. The map also captures the arid expanse of the Cane Spring Desert and the deep incision of Grand Gulch near the reservoir's edge.
