The Green River must be one of the most diverse rivers on the planet. From it's birthplace at Green River Lakes in the Wind River Range, down to the confluence with the Colorado, its character changes over and over. Here in the basin, we have the opportunity to see many of its faces. One of the most stunning locations to admire this waterway from above is the nearby Red Canyon Overlook.
