Cartographers have attempted to map the complex features of the Grand Canyon for more than 150 years. Over time their equipment and techniques have changed dramatically, enabling them to capture fine details and diverse information.
See the wide range of maps being used today. They are as beautiful as they are informative.
This exhibit contains approximately 50 maps of the Grand Canyon region dating from 1858 to the present, and some early and contemporary tools used by map makers to collect data.
Maps and their stories are divided into four general categories: Historical, Geological, "Working Maps", and Recreational.
