2014 Map of Warm Creek Bay

About this map

Warm Creek Bay and the submerged canyons of the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area dominate this 2014 survey. The map documents the intricate shoreline and high-desert terrain where the Utah-Arizona state line intersects the rising waters of Lake Powell. Significant landmarks like Castle Rock and Antelope Island rise above the basin, while the southern edge of the map follows the course of the Colorado River through Coconino County. This era is defined by the recreation-focused geography of the reservoir, reachable via Recreation Road 144 and Recreation Road 231. Topographical features such as Alstrom Point and the Wahweap Window illustrate the extreme verticality of the surrounding mesas and plateaus, including Romana Mesa and the Oley Knolls, providing a detailed look at the interface between the high desert and the modern reservoir system.
