Blanco Canyon, Canyon in Floyd County and Crosby County, Texas.
The canyon extends for 34 miles through the Caprock Escarpment, starting at 50 feet deep and reaching depths of 500 feet at its mouth.
Colonel Ranald Mackenzie established Anderson's Fort near the canyon mouth in 1871, now registered as a National Historic Place.
The Plains Baptist Assembly grounds occupy 160 acres within the canyon, serving as a year-round facility for religious gatherings since 1948.
U.S. Highway 62 provides north-south access across the canyon, while Farm to Market Road 193 enables east-west travel with roadside facilities.
The White River carved this formation into the Llano Estacado, creating a valley that supported the first permanent settlement west of Fort Griffin.
