About this map

Zion Lodge sits at the heart of this study of Zion National Park, where the North Fork Virgin River has carved the deep corridor of Zion Canyon. The geography is defined by immense verticality, from the legendary slot of The Narrows to the soaring heights of Cathedral Mountain and Wynopits Mountain.

A network of springs and canyons suggests the complex hydrology of the plateau, including Grotto Springs and Cabin Spring. Remote structures like the Shelter Cabin and geological landmarks such as the Temple of Sinawava and the Mountain of Mystery are documented in high detail. The map also captures the transition from the iconic Floor of the Valley Road to the more primitive routes on the eastern plateau, including Fir Road and Beaver Road.
