2021 Map of Quartermaster Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Grand Canyon National Park and the Lake Mead National Recreation Area converge in this high-desert landscape, where the Colorado River carves through the Lower Granite Gorge. This terrain is defined by the dramatic descent from the Hualapai Plateau into deep drainages like Quartermaster Canyon and Jeff Canyon. The mapping reveals a sparse but vital network of water sources, including Quartermaster Springs and various livestock tanks such as Smith Tank, Little Jeff Tank, and Boulder Tank, which reflect the ranching and resource management history of this arid region. The arrival of modern infrastructure is evident at Grand Canyon West Airport, serving as a gateway to the spectacular geological formations nearby. Navigational landmarks like Waterfall Rapids on the river contrast with the upland roads, including Diamond Bar Rd and New Water Tank Rd, which trace the rim above the canyons.
