Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park
Some things to note about the Black Canyon of the Gunnison:
1. Its rocky.
2. It’s steep. Really steep. They even attached a chain to part of the trail on the “Gunnison Route” so that it could be possible to climb back up. Check out the picture below.
3. There’s a lot of camping available, but it was completely full on June 30th when I arrived. Arrive early. Most sites are first come – first serve.
4. There’s Giardia in the water in the canyon. Make sure you boil it or filter it if you’re going to consume that water.
5. Golden Hour / Sunset is the best time to go. The park is open. Not many people in the park. The canyon is beautiful at sunset. Case closed.
