1954 Map of Lees Ferry

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The confluence of the Colorado River and the Paria River serves as the focal point of this mid-century survey, conducted just as the region prepared for significant infrastructure shifts. This area, dominated by the towering Vermilion Cliffs and the deep incisions of Glen Canyon, features the historic Lees Ferry and its associated Gaging Sta, long the critical crossing point for travelers between Arizona and Utah. The map documents the landscape prior to the completion of the Glen Canyon Dam, showing the river corridor as it existed with a Cableway and the landmark Navajo Bridge providing the only high-road transit across the chasm.
