1962 Map of Powell Plateau

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Grand Canyon National Park and the Kaibab National Forest meet in this 1962 survey, revealing the complex verticality of the North Rim. The landscape is dominated by the massive Powell Plateau, which stands isolated between the Tapeats Amphitheater and Shinumo Amphitheater. This era captures the backcountry before modern visitor infrastructure reached many of these points, focusing instead on the hydrological and geological network of the Middle Granite Gorge.
