About this map

The Colorado River carves a deep path through this section of the Grand Canyon National Park in the late 1980s, revealing a landscape defined by dramatic elevation changes and named geographical markers. From the high plateau of S B Point to the river's edge, the map documents significant whitewater features such as Hundred and Sixtyfour Mile Rapids and Havasu Rapids.

The southern portion of the sheet shows the Havasupai Indian Reservation boundary and Yumtheska Point, where the land drops away into the canyon system. Notable landforms like Sinyala Mesa and Hades Knoll stand as landmarks against the complex topography. The map also traces the drainage of Havasu Creek as it approaches its confluence with the main river, marking the transition between Mohave and Coconino counties.
