Dark Canyon

Dark Canyon enters the Colorado from the south at about mile 154, near the lower end of Cataract Canyon upstream of Hite. It is a long, roadless wilderness canyon. Boat access to its mouth depends on the lake level, floating driftwood can make boating difficult, and there is little or no camping at the mouth.
