bivi spots mouth of Misery Canyon?

[Scott P]

Are there any reasonable bivi spots at or near the Misery-Parunuweap confluence?

You might be able to get a small spot or two. There are a few spots upstream or downstream within about 1/2 a mile. If I were trying to bivy near the confluence, I would get to the confluence itself and look for a spot, but if there was nothing there, I'd hike the dirt hill right there up to the plateau above and camp there. Does that make sense?

[Scott P]

Makes sense. It doesn't have to be right at the confluence; I was just wondering about the general vicinity.

There are several places to bivy between Misery and the Powell Plaque. I've taken a nap in that section several times while waiting for the cool evening temperatures to hike back over Checkerboard Mesa. These are not camp sites, just a couple places you can stretch out and catch some ZZZ's.
