Iron Wash approach
MOD: So I moved out the post from Eardley into this one to keep it separate and to provide discussion.
Iron Wash: hike upcanyon from where? I've hiked in from the bottom - thought it was a nice walk, but not short, and did not get me anywhere near the interesting section.

So we drive to the drilling derick, and hike to the canyon which is pretty short. After you get past the keeper (do the keeper or turn around there), go back the way you came. Sorry I should of clarified better, hiking from the bottom sucks. It's a LONG hike that way. Even with the drilling derrik approach, Iron wash, IMO, isn't a classic canyon. But I think if anyone publishes beta should include this approach, instead of the wash approach. It's 3/4 mile walk to the canyon from the derrik compared to what, a 3mile-one-way hike just to enter it?
