2021 Map of Shiva Temple

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Grand Canyon National Park reveals its complex topography in this high-resolution study centered on the monumental Shiva Temple. The land is defined by colossal erosional features named for global deities and philosophers, including Confucius Temple, Mencius Temple, and the Hindu Amphitheater. This nomenclature, established during early geological surveys, reflects the late 19th-century intellectual fascination with ancient world history and mythology. Along the southern edge of the quadrangle, the Colorado River carves through the Granite Gorge, where the West Tonto Trl traverses the inner canyon. Key drainages such as Crystal Cr and Dragon Cr feed the river, while prominent landmarks like Point Sublime and Claude Birdseye Point provide critical vantage points over the massive drainage systems of Phantom Canyon and Kanabownits Canyon.
