Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park

Previous Photo : Photo Index : Next Photo





Upgraded to a National Park in October 1999, the Black Canyon of the Gunnison is one of Colorado's hidden treasures. Carved by the raging Gunnison river, this deep gorge has steep 2,000 foot cliffs of marbled granite. Challenging hikes lead into the canyon, but most visitors content themselves with a drive along the rim and a gawp over the sheer sides to the river below.
