Overview
One of the West's treasures is Desolation Canyon on the Green River. Deeper than the Grand Canyon, better preserved than most of the Colorado River system, full of wildlife, it contains colorful, castellated walls and lovely beaches to rival those anywhere. Remote and difficult to access, it has a surprisingly rich history, from the Fremont people, who left abundant signs of their presence including in tributary canyons Nine Mile and Range Creek, to Utes, ranchers, moonshiners, outlaws, and today's river runners. James Aton has written the detailed history of this fantastic and remote canyon. Dan Miller's remarkable photographs tell the rest of the story
