Geologic and Related Photographs of the Grand Canyon Region (1967–2010)

Metadata Updated: July 6, 2024

The Grand Canyon geologic field photograph collection contains 1,211 geotagged photographs collected during 43 years of geologic mapping from 1967 to 2010. The photographs document some key geologic features, structures, and rock unit relations that were used to compile nine geologic maps of the Grand Canyon region published at 1:100,000 scale, and many more maps published at 1:24,000 scale. Metadata for each photograph include description, date captured, coordinates, and a labeling system that places each photograph in one of the following categories: arches and windows, breccia pipes and collapse structures, faults and folds, igneous rocks, landslides and rockfalls, metamorphic rocks, sedimentary rocks, sinkholes, or springs and waterfalls. Original photograph slides are available at the Northern Arizona University Cline Library Special Collections and Archives.
