Thompson Canyon

Thompson Canyon is east of Onion Creek and the Fisher Towers, and northeast of Moab. It is a challenging, but non-technical hike, without a trail. Photos taken in late March 2006.

Note

I'll just be attaching this album to the group page I'm working on. I'll mention it in the overview, but don't think I'll add a seperate page on the canyon itself.

Re: could make a good canyon page

It might make a good page. I kno some don't like canyon pags though, so I've been mostly focusing on the ones that require rock climbing to get through.

Maybe I'll create one on this sometime, as I think it is acceptable on SPv2. I was also thinking of a Goblin Valley Page.

Hidden gem

I discovered this canyon from this blog post.
Last March my friends and I turned it into a 3-day backpacking loop. We started at Onion Creek Hideout Campground, hiked down Fisher Creek to the Delores, then up and out of Thompson using the old stock trail. There were a few surprise drop-offs along Fisher, but nothing an experienced hiker couldn't handle. We only saw one person at the end of the Delores River dirt road. Beautiful place!
