1985 Map of Navajo Bridge

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Navajo Indian Reservation land and the Colorado River corridor define this 1985 survey of Northern Arizona. This landscape is a point of significant geographic transition where the sheer walls of Marble Canyon cut through the high desert floor. The iconic Navajo Bridge provides a vital crossing over the river, linking the remote Vermilion Cliffs to the east and west. Local landmarks like the Vermilion Cliffs Lodge and the small settlement at Marble Canyon serve as rare outposts of human habitation in a region dominated by the Paria Plateau and the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area. Numerous water sources, including Sevenmile Spring and Badger Spring, are noted among the steep drainage systems of Sevenmile Draw and Badger Creek, which terminates at the hazardous Badger Creek Rapids.
