From Lake Mead to the eastern canyon country

Following the Colorado River across northern Arizona, this sheet spans the Grand Canyon from the Lake Mead area in the west to the high desert and plateau country east of the main gorge. Its narrow north–south footprint keeps the canyon corridor central, while also taking in the surrounding rims, tributary canyons and broad uplands on both sides.

A landscape built around relief

The defining feature is the abrupt contrast between deeply incised canyon terrain and the elevated plateaux beyond it. Western desert country gives way eastwards to a more extensive maze of cliffs, side canyons and exposed high ground. The sheet is particularly well shaped for routes tracing the Colorado or crossing between the North and South Rim country, where modest map distances can span pronounced changes in terrain.

One self-contained sheet

At roughly 157 nautical miles wide and 70 nautical miles tall, the chart has a strongly east–west format. It has no adjoining chart of the same type, so its coverage forms a single, purpose-shaped view of the Grand Canyon region.

Common questions

What area does the Grand Canyon Grand Canyon Chart cover?

It spans 35.6°N to 36.8°N and 114.5°W to 111.3°W. Airports on the sheet fall within Arizona and Nevada. The full list of public-use airports within its coverage is on this page.

Should I download the GeoTIFF or the PDF?

Take the GeoTIFF if you are loading the chart into moving-map software or a flight planner — it is georeferenced, so the software can place it correctly on a map, and it ships with a world file and FGDC metadata at 300 dpi (36.1 MB). Take the PDF to print it or read it on a second screen (77.1 MB); it is the same chart without georeferencing.

Is this the current Grand Canyon chart?

This is the FAA edition effective 3 September 2026, which is superseded on 29 October 2026. Visual charts are reissued every 56 days and we publish each new edition on the day it takes effect. It is for flight simulation and reference only — not for real-world navigation.

Is the Grand Canyon Grand Canyon Chart free to download?

Yes, with no account required. FAA charts are United States Government works and are not subject to copyright protection in the US under 17 U.S.C. § 105. Guest downloads are speed-capped, so a sheet this size takes a while; PRO members download at full line speed and can take the whole family as one archive.
