1967 Map of Spencer Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The Colorado River carves a deep path through the Granite Gorge in this 1960s topographic study of Mohave County. This landscape is defined by the intersection of the Hualapai Indian Reservation and the Lake Mead National Recreation Area, where the river’s descent is marked by hazardous stretches like Lost Creek Rapids, Surprise Rapids, and Lava Cliff Rapids. The terrain transitions sharply from the elevated Sanup Plateau into deep drainages such as Surprise Canyon and Spencer Canyon.
