River Map Page - Grand Canyon River Guide

This page from Belknap’s Grand Canyon River Guide features a detailed, full-color topographic map of the Colorado River from Escalante Creek to Cottonwood Creek. It includes rapid classifications, mileage markers, and some history. Geology notes highlight formations such as Vishnu Schist and Hakatai Shale, helping boaters understand the canyon’s ancient layers. Hance Rapid’s 30-foot drop and other key rapids like Nevill’s and Sockdolager are noted for navigation. Illustrated with historic photos and modern river imagery, all of the map pages blend science, history, and river-running details into a practical and educational tool for Grand Canyon adventurers.
