2023 Map of Silver Falls Bench

USGS Topo · Published 2023

About this map

The Glen Canyon National Recreation Area dominates the western half of this landscape, where the Escalante River and its major tributaries carve deep incisions into the high plateau. The map highlights a series of distinctive geological landforms, most notably the broad, flat surfaces of Little Bown Bench, Big Bown Bench, and the namesake Silver Falls Bench. These elevated benches are separated by complex drainage systems including the formidable Death Hollow and the meandering Harris Wash. Transportation in this environment is limited to specialized routes like the Silver Falls Canyon Trl, which follows the rugged descent toward Silver Falls Creek. This 2023 survey serves as a vital record of the canyon country's hydrological patterns, marking the confluence of the North Fork Silver Falls Creek and the southern Baker Bench near the river's path.
