Milkweed Canyon is located on Sanup Plateau the First Nations Hualapai Tribal Reservation in northern Arizona, within the southern part of the Grand Canyon National Park.
From the top of Milkweed Canyon over the course of 8 miles it feeds into Spencer Canyon which in turn runs down into the Colorado River in Granite Gorge at the Lava Cliffs Rapids.
While not a classic slot canyon, some parts of Milkweed are long, narrow passages with a stream running through all year round. There are numerous pools, cascades and small waterfalls, and the walls contain numerous types of pink and grey limestone, and thick veins of white quartz.
On top of the canon it is densely-wooded and in the lower area the canyon has plenty of desert cactus. This is a particularly remote and untouched region, and though part of the Grand Canyon system it is a far removed from the hustle and bustle of the main south or north rim viewpoints.
Most of Milkweed canyon is inaccessible for hiking so this aerial view I took while flying over the area is about the only way to enjoy it!
This following photo is of the Canvas Giclee Print I made of this image for a collector. All of the images I post on Steemit are available for print in a variety of sizes and on a variety of different substrate materials. And I will take crypto currency in exchange for my fine art prints.
