Buckskin Gulch
The Buckskin Gulch, a canyon in southern Utah, is one of the main tributaries of the Paria River, which is itself a minor tributary of the Colorado River. It is the longest and deepest slot canyon in the southwest United States and may be the longest in the world. As such it is one of the premier destinations for slot canyon hikers, and receives a high amount of foot traffic.
At over in length it is often visited in conjunction with the longer Paria Canyon, although some prefer to make a long day trip out of the hike. With a distance of , hiking this canyon in one day is possible. Wire Pass, a short tributary to the Buckskin, is an ideal alternative for a short day hike that still takes hikers through the narrow, curving features that are the hallmark of slot canyons.〔(Buckskin Gulch ), www.americansouthwest.net, undated (accessed 18 January 2007)〕
==Access==
Buckskin Gulch is reached via US Highway 89 or U.S. Highway 89A, and is approximately half way between the towns of Kanab, Utah and Page, Arizona. There is a ranger station right near the bridge over the intermittently flowing Paria River, and the dirt road to the Gulch is approximately west of the station. You then go down the dirt road to the jump-off point. The Wire Pass entrance shares the same trailhead, Wire Pass Trailhead, with the equally spectacular Coyote Buttes, home to The Wave, a famous sandstone rock formation.
