Utah > Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument > Map
US 89 and UT 12 are the two paved roads through Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument; other important routes are the Skutumpah Road between Cannonville and Johnson Canyon, Cottonwood Canyon Road between Cannonville and US 89, and the Hole-in-the-Rock Road between Escalante and Lake Powell.
In December 2017 the monument was reduced in size, and divided into three sections; the Grand Staircase, Kaiparowits and Escalante Canyons units. This change was reversed in 2021, but then in 2026, the monument was reduced once more, now consisting only of a smaller Escalante Canyons unit, and three minor parcels further west.
