Grand Canyon Waterproof River Maps

Grand Canyon Waterproof River Maps– Your Essential Guide Down the Colorado River in Grand Canyon.

Planning a trip through Grand Canyon? Belknap’s Grand Canyon Waterproof River Guide from Westwater Books is the gold standard for navigating the mighty Colorado River. Whether you’re a private boater or part of a commercial group, this detailed and easy-to-use river guide provides everything you need to explore the canyon.

Crafted for clarity and durability, the guidebook offers mile-by-mile guidance down the 297-mile stretch of the Colorado River from Lees Ferry to Lake Mead. Based on U.S. Geological Survey data and enriched with years of local knowledge, our Grand Canyon River Map makes it simple to locate rapids, campsites, points of interest, and side hikes. Each page features a large-scale topographic map with detailed notations and elevation profiles, so you always know exactly where you are and what’s coming up.

One of the standout features of our Grand Canyon river guide is its readability. The maps are printed in full color on waterproof, tear-resistant paper, making them incredibly durable for multi-day river expeditions. Clear icons, thoughtfully placed mile markers, and an intuitive layout mean you won’t be flipping back and forth or second-guessing your position. Even first-time Grand Canyon boaters can navigate confidently with this book at hand.

In addition to river features and logistics, the guide includes valuable insights on geology, ecology, and human history, turning every bend in the river into an opportunity for discovery. With commentary from veteran boaters and experts, it reads like a combination of a field guide, safety manual, and personal trip journal.

Unlike generic maps or digital GPS systems that can fall short in remote canyon environments, Westwater Books’ Grand Canyon River Maps are purpose-built for this exact journey. They’ve become a trusted companion for thousands of boaters over the years, praised for their detail, reliability, and ease of use.

This guide gives you the confidence to fully experience the awe of the Grand Canyon. It’s more than just a map—it’s your essential river companion.
