Canyon Park Topo Map

Topo Map of Canyon Park


The Red Dot is where the driveway turns left off Canyon Park Road. The Canyon is shown in green, as it angles from the center of the map to the upper right corner (North East).

As you drive down the driveway to the Cabin, you will drop 83 feet from the top of the ridge. Then observe the level area that is the top of the bluffs all around canyon is at 1050 feet above sea level. This is where the cabin stands, and then the bottom flood plain level of the canyon is 950 feet above sea level. The bluffs drop 100 feet all along the sides of the canyon.

This photo is taken from the road, way down in the canyon, looking up 100 feet at the deck (left) and house (right). This is late fall / early winter, and you can see the boulders strewn down the side of the canyon below the house.
