Hike
Dry Fork Narrows, Coyote Gulch, Utah
View Original Description
The Dry Fork Narrows is an excellent example of how occasional flash floods have carved a narrow slot into the underlying Navajo Sandstone. While not technically a slot canyon because you can't touch both walls at the same time, the canyon walls are narrow and very tall bat approximately 20 feet (7 m) deep.
The slot can be followed upstream for several hundred yards. Further upstream from this area is a large sandstone dome exhibiting extensive layering and crossbedding, remnants of its formation from sand dunes.
