The Field Atlas
0/363Canyon chapter · 36.48° N · 105.73° W
A basaltic canyon the river cut through a volcanic plateau. Deep, straight, and almost empty north of the bridge.
Wild Rivers is the quiet end. The gorge is 800 feet in places and feels deeper because the plateau is so flat. Most people stop at the bridge, take a picture, and leave.
