Buckskin Gulch, Utah
Buckskin Gulch in southern Utah may not be as glamourous as
better-known Antelope Canyon, which is not too far away in northern
Arizona. However, with a length of 13 miles Buckskin Gulch is the longest
slot canyon in the Southwest, offereing great opportunities for hiking
and even backpacking (26-mile round trip to the Pariah River and back).
Buckskin Gulch also has far fewer visitors so any photographs
you get there are likely to look much more original.
