2021 Map of Purgatory Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

The Virgin River cuts through the northwest corner of this Mohave County landscape, passing below Black Rock Gulch and the distinctive formations of Yellow Knolls. This high-desert terrain is marked by severe vertical relief and isolation, centered on the deep fissure of Purgatory Canyon and its smaller counterpart, Little Purgatory Canyon. To the north, Starvation Point overlooks the river valley, while the Shivwits Arch stands as a notable landmark within the complex drainage systems.
