1953 Map of Mt. Ellsworth

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Mt Ellsworth dominates the northern skyline of this desert landscape, where the Henry Mountains meet the rising waters of the Colorado River. This mid-century survey, updated in the 1970s, captures the transition of Glen Canyon into the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area. The flooding of the canyon is evident in the marking of Lake Powell, which begins to fill the deep tributary canyons such as Knowles Canyon and Forgotten Canyon.
