This image was made near Cimarron, CO, and shows the Gunnison River entering the Black Canyon. The near vertical walls of the canyon tower to heights exceeding two thousand feet above the river below.
The Black Canyon of the Gunnison was designated a National Park during the Clinton administration.
By highway, the Park is about fifteen miles east of Montrose. As the crow flies, it is more like four.
