| Hiked in from wooden shoe canyon to youngs and back. Would do sun dance to river and lost next time as canyon gets progressively more epic as you descend. Encountered all possible weather in a five day trip and wind was relentless. Truly special place. | |

| A really unique experience! I got caught in a hellish storm coming back up the scramble towards Sundance Trailhead. THAT PART is not so recommended. :) | |

| Three day backpack from the Sundance Trail. This was a great hike and beautiful canyon. No other people were in Dark Canyon past Lost Canyon and few were down lower. There was a lot of water in the canyon and wildflowers were everywhere in early May. May 8 - Hiked down to Dark Canyon and made camp and then hiked up Lost Canyon. May 9 - Hiked up through Dark Canyon to Youngs Canyon and the waterfall. May 10 - Hiked through lower Dark Canyon and then back up to the trailhead. | |

| I've been there. Best part of Dark Canyon is Youngs Canyon to Lost Canyon, but not too many people see that section. | |

| mow10 | I love Dark Canyon Date Climbed: Oct 15, 1999 | |
| Led a group of teens on a 7 day loop through the greater Dark Canyon area. Remote, dramatic and beautiful. Don't think just go! | |
