2011 Map of Stevens Canyon South

About this map

The Escalante River winds through this high desert landscape, carving deep meanders before reaching the northern reaches of Lake Powell. This 2011 survey illustrates the dramatic intersection where river-cut canyons meet the backwaters of the reservoir. Several prominent drainage systems, including Coyote Gulch and Stevens Canyon, define the western side of the river's path. Further south, the map identifies Cow Canyon and Fence Canyon, providing a clear view of the complex topography leading toward the open waters. The imagery and data, sourced from 2009 records, document the shoreline and water levels of the period, reflecting the environmental conditions of the early twenty-first century in this unpopulated stretch of southern Utah.
