About this map

Canyonlands National Park dominates the western portion of this 2020 landscape, characterized by a high concentration of distinctive geological formations within San Juan County. The terrain is marked by numerous named arches and bridges, including Anchor Arch, Gothic Arch, and Gunsight Natural Bridge. In the north, South Sixshooter Peak stands near the creatively named Paul Bunyans Potty, while the southern reaches feature Bridger Jack Mesa and Big Pocket. The map documents a network of unpaved routes like Davis Canyon Road and Horse Canyon Road that trace the drainage patterns of Lavender Canyon and Horse Canyon, illustrating the modern accessibility of this remote high-desert region. These paths connect hikers and visitors to landmarks like Thirteen Faces and Castle Arch, serving as a modern guide to the intricate sandstone topography of the Needles area.
