Konorchek Canyons

Konorchek is known for eroded red rock formations hidden away from the main road through the Boom area. Exploring the canyons is a walking excursion, with narrow passages and open, exposed ground changing the character of the route. The best visit is unhurried and planned around daylight, weather and a clear understanding of the return path. Dry-looking channels can become hazardous during rain, while shade is limited in many sections. Go with reliable route knowledge and enjoy the shapes from durable paths rather than climbing fragile formations.
