Narrow Canyon

Narrow Canyon is the stretch of the Colorado between Mille Crag Bend, at the foot of Cataract Canyon, and the mouth of the Dirty Devil River, where Glen Canyon begins. John Wesley Powell's 1869 expedition named it. The Hite Crossing Bridge (UT-95) spans it. When the lake is high it is part of Lake Powell; at lower levels it is river.
