1985 Map of Navajo Lake

About this map

Navajo Lake sits as the central focal point of this mid-1980s topography, marking a landscape defined by the dramatic geological transition of the Pink Cliffs. The map illustrates the headwaters of the North Fork Virgin River and the striking limestone formations of the Cedar Breaks National Monument to the northwest. This high-elevation terrain is dotted with seasonal water sources and springs such as Elderberry Spring, Olsen Spring, and Boy Scout Spring, indicating the critical nature of water management within the Dixie National Forest. Notable landmarks like Blowhard Mountain and Point Supreme overlook the deeply incised canyons and ridges, including Jericho Ridge and Ashdown Canyon, while the southern reaches of the map show the beginning of the river's descent toward the Colorado Plateau through Cascade Falls.
