2021 Map of Jumpup Point

About this map

Grand Canyon National Park and Kaibab National Forest meet in this 2021 survey, documenting a landscape of dramatic vertical relief defined by deep drainages and high plateaus. The topography is anchored by Jumpup Point and Sowats Point, offering a detailed view of the complex erosion patterns along Kanab Cr and the unique formation of The Gooseneck. This map reveals a network of essential water sources critical for survival in the arid environment, including Jumpup Spring, Cottonwood Spring, and Mountain Sheep Spring. The transit through this difficult terrain is marked by historic pathways such as the Ranger Trl and the Jumpup/Nail Trl, which connect the canyon floors of Sowats Canyon and Jumpup Canyon to the forested heights above. The survey also captures livestock infrastructure like Divide Tank and Jumpup Tank, reflecting the continued multi-use nature of these public lands.
