2020 Map of Thompson Point
USGS Topo · Published 2020About this map
The Vermilion Cliffs and Shinarump Cliffs define the dramatic vertical geography where the high desert plateau of southern Utah meets the Arizona border. This landscape is a complex network of named drainages, including Hog Canyon, Pugh Canyon, and Willis Canyon, which have historically dictated travel and settlement patterns. Near the town of Kanab, the map shows modern residential expansion along the base of the cliffs with roads such as Boulder Bluff Blvd and E Grande Vermillion Ave. Genealogists and local historians will find the Johnson Cem in Johnson Canyon, a quiet reminder of early pioneer footprints in the region. Much of the northern terrain is preserved within the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, while the southern portion tracks the state line between Kane Co, Utah, and Coconino Co, Arizona.
