About this map

Halls Crossing serves as a critical point of access to the waters of Lake Powell, situated where the Halls Crossing Rd terminates at the shoreline. This modern survey illustrates the complex geography of the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, where the rising waters have partially submerged traditional desert landmarks. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the Colorado River, which transitions into the broad expanse of Bullfrog Bay to the northwest.

Deep side canyons such as Moqui Canyon, Lake Canyon, and Lost Eden Canyon cut into the surrounding high ground, including the Red Rock Plateau and Iron Top Mesa. The boundary between San Juan Co and Kane Co follows the centerline of the inundated river channel. Landforms like The Amphitheater remain prominent features above the waterline, providing a clear view of the area's geological relief as it existed in the early 21st century.
