2023 Map of Horsethief Canyon

About this map

The Green River meanders through some of Utah's most intricate river geography on this map, cutting deep into the high desert landscape. The winding path of the river defines the boundary between Wayne and San Juan Counties, carving out massive horseshoe bends that create isolated riverfront benches like Potato Bottom, Hardscrabble Bottom, and Beaver Bottom. These bottomlands represent rare accessible points along the river corridor, often flanked by towering landmarks such as Bighorn Mesa and the Orange Cliffs.
