This section of the Green River flows through remote terrain out of the Uinta Basin. A permit is required and available at the Sand Wash put in location. Plan on 4-5 days for this adventure. For the first 25 miles the river flows slow and gives you plenty of relaxing time with occasional small riffles. Once you reach Desolation Canyon the rapids begin and continue with breaks in between and nothing to technical. Mosquitoes can be terrible so be prepared with repellent. Be sure you know the areas where camping is permitted. There are Indian Reservations and some require camping permits from the tribe. Takeout is at Green River State Park.
