Byers Canyon, Natural canyon in Grand County, Colorado, US
Byers Canyon extends for 8 miles along the Colorado River between Hot Sulphur Springs and Kremmling, featuring steep rock walls and natural formations.
The Colorado River has carved this natural passage through rock formations over thousands of years, creating a vital transportation route through the region.
The canyon serves as a critical passage for both U.S. Highway 40 and the Union Pacific Railroad's Moffat Route, connecting communities across Colorado.
Visitors can observe wildlife such as elk, deer, and moose while driving through the canyon on Highway 40, which follows the rushing Colorado River.
The Byers Canyon Shooting Range, part of the Hot Sulphur Springs State Wildlife Area, operates within the canyon walls for recreational shooters.
