Junkyard Canyon

Surprisingly good canyon that is useful as an access point for packrafting on the Colorado below Glen Canyon Dam. Has a couple of potholes that may be semi-keepers if they are completely scoured out, nothing was an issue at the time of our descent. Has lots of junk vehicles at the head and a fair bit of trash throughout. Toggle device is useful on many rappels due to set back anchor points. Please DO NOT build an established anchor for R1!! Malicious vandalism has occurred to fixed anchors here, please use a sandtrap and practice leaving no trace!

Park at the Walmart in Page. Follow access road on the North side of the Walmart (between Walmart and the Autozone). Split off into the drainage when logical. There is an established social trail. First several (3) drops are bypassed on the down canyon right.

Follow wash on the right side, eventually coming to a V notch to follow down in. Climb around all small drops until the prominent slot appears. (there is a small stance to inflate packrafts below)

Packraft 13.5 miles to Lee's Ferry, or head up stream and take the ropes trail.
