About this map

Glen Canyon and the winding expanse of Lake Powell dominate this 1980s landscape within the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area. The topography is defined by the sharp incisions of Moqui Canyon and North Gulch, revealing a network of drainage patterns and high plateau rims. A significant historical marker is the Emigrant Trail, which traces a path across the southern portion of the quadrangle, indicating early overland passage through this complex terrain. The map also records localized human activity such as a Gravel Pit and scattered water sources like Spring, which were vital markers in an arid environment. This provisional survey captures the intersection of deep geological time and the mid-century transformation of the Colorado River basin into a major recreational waterway.
