Colorado Plateau - Canyonlands - Southern Rocky Mountain from the German publishers Hildebrand, combining coverage of the southern Rockies with an overview map of a wider area between Denver and Los Angeles.

The main map at 1:700,000 is spread over both sides of this title. On one side is most of Arizona, from Phoenix northwards, plus the southern part of Utah. On the reverse coverage is extended further east to north-western New Mexico with Albuquerque and south-western Colorado, just short of Denver. The map prominently highlights the region’s numerous national parks and national/state forest, and other protected areas, plus clearly shows Indian reservations and restricted military zones.

Topography is indicated by relief shading with names of various individual mountain ranges and stop heights. Road network is graded into five types, from national highways to unsealed local roads. Scenic roads are highlighted and driving distances are marked on main routes. Railway lines are included and domestic airports are marked. The map indicates locations of campsites and various places of interest, is indexed (NB. very small print), and has latitude and longitude lines at intervals of 30’. Map legend includes English.

A large inset at 1:3,478,000 approx provides an overview of wider area; between Denver and LA, and north/south from Salt Lake City to Phoenix. Also provided is a street plan of Phoenix showing access to the Sky Harbor International Airport.

National parks, other protected area and Indian reservations covered by this map include: Grand Canyon, Zion, Bryce Canyon, Arches, Capitol Reef, Glen Canyon - Lake Powell, Canyonlands, Monument Valley, Mesa Verde, Canyon de Chelly, Petrified Forest, plus Navajo and Hopi Indian Reservations.
