2014 Map of Travertine Rapids

About this map

The Colorado River carves through this remote stretch of Mohave County, where the southern boundary of Grand Canyon National Park meets the Lake Mead National Recreation Area. This terrain is defined by dramatic elevation changes and deep natural drainages, most notably Two Hundred and Twentymile Canyon and Travertine Canyon. The river corridor features Travertine Rapids and the mouth of Diamond Creek, critical navigation points for river travelers and historical points of interest for those studying the Colorado's path through the inner canyon. High above the river, Kelly Point serves as a prominent overlook. The map provides a detailed view of the township and range survey lines—including t28n r11w and t27n r10w—illustrating how federal land boundaries intersect with the natural topography of the canyon floor.
