1997 Map of Water Pockets

USGS Topo · Published 2003

About this map

Vermilion Cliffs National Monument and the Paria Canyon-Vermilion Cliffs Wilderness dominate this high-desert landscape in northern Arizona. The area is characterized by the dramatic descent from the Paria Plateau into the deeply incised channel of the Paria River. Named features like Water Pockets and Thousand Pockets reveal the vital role of natural water catchment in this arid terrain, where erosion has carved out basins that historically sustained travelers and wildlife.
