Sundance Trail

San Juan County, UT

Approximate location — plotted from published sources, not a site visit, and not a guarantee of access.

From the rim near Utah Highway 95, the Sundance Trail drops into the lower reach of Dark Canyon on a steep talus route, losing more than a thousand vertical feet. It is the usual day-hike and backpack way to the perennial creek in lower Dark Canyon, within and adjacent to Glen Canyon NRA and Bears Ears country. Dirt county roads leave U-95 near the White Canyon bridge to reach the trailhead.
