Canyons Near Flaming Gorge

[chabidiah]

I am looking for some canyons at or near Flaming Gorge. Has anyone done a canyon in the area? Heard of anything? I would appreciate any input, ideas or suggestions. Thanks

The only 2 that I'm aware of that are published are Scoggin Draw and Outlaw Canyon, which are located in Dinosaur National Monument. Scott P published the routes for those ones and I believe the beta for it is only at Summitpost.

Here ya go:

Outlaw Canyon (http://www.summitpost.org/outlaw-canyon/240565)

Scoggin Draw (AKA Outlaw Arch Canyon) (http://www.summitpost.org/scoggin-draw-outlaw-arch-canyon/231295)

There are slot canyons closer to Flaming Gorge than the ones above, but all of them I've seen have bushwhacking. There is at least one around Red Fleet that might be better, but I haven't gotten around to completing it. There are also some pretty good canyons not far from the Dinosaur Quarry.

awesome, which side of red fleets park is the canyon? Is it the Buckhorn canyon area?
