About this map

Kaibab National Forest and Grand Canyon National Park meet in this high-elevation landscape, where the Arizona National Scenic Trail traverses the western edge of the Kaibab Plateau. The map shows a transition from the meadow-like openings of De Motte Park and Upper Little Park to the dramatic drainage systems that feed into the canyon complex. Natural water sources are critical features of this environment, with locations like Robbers Roost Spring, South Canyon Spring, and the seasonally variable Hades Lake providing essential points of interest for backcountry navigation.

Prominent overlooks and landmarks include Pt Sublime, Tiyo Point, and Lindbergh Hill, offering significant orientation points for those studying the topography of the North Rim area. The drainage of Bright Angel Cr begins its descent here, carved through deep recesses like Fuller Canyon and Thompson Canyon. This survey documents the modern layout of forest service access and the protected wilderness boundary as it existed in 2018.
