Four miles off Utah
Highway 261 near Mexican Hat, you can look into a
1,000-foot-deep chasm carved through the
Pennsylvanian Hermosa Formation by the silt-laden
San Juan River. The river meanders back and forth,
flowing for more than five miles while progressing
only one linear mile toward the Colorado River and
Lake Powell. The access road is paved. Facilities
include primitive camping and vault rest rooms.
For updated information regarding
facilities for the physically challenged, contact the park.
