Paddling near Hanksville, UT


Hanksville sits in Wayne County at the confluence of the Fremont River and Muddy Creek, where the two join to form the Dirty Devil River. The area is remote high-desert canyon country, and the marquee paddling route is the Dirty Devil itself — an 84-mile wilderness float through towering sandstone walls down to Lake Powell.
