2023 Map of Lion Canyon

About this map

McPherson Range dominates this corner of Grand County, where high plateaus are dissected by a complex system of drainage corridors. The landscape is defined by its dramatic geologic formations, including the distinctive Broken Finger Arch and the broad expanses of the Three-Fords Benches. Water is the primary architect here, with Florence Creek and Coal Creek carving through the terrain, flanked by notable high points like Slough Canyon Point and Bear Trap Knoll. This 2023 survey illustrates the intricate network of vertical relief and named canyons such as Lion Canyon and Saleratus Canyon, providing a clear look at the remote topography of the Utah wilderness as it remains in the early 21st century.
