Labyrinth Canyon Media Resources

The west side of Labyrinth Canyon was designated as Wilderness by Congress in 2019 (scroll to page 93) and the river corridor itself is designated as a Scenic River under the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act. The east side of Labyrinth Canyon has not yet been designated as wilderness, though proposed federal legislation—America’s Red Rock Wilderness Act—would do so.

[In October 2022, EcoFlight did an overflight of Labyrinth Canyon and surrounding public lands. If you’re looking for aerial photos, they have many options; video footage (including 360° footage) is also available. Please credit EcoFlight.]
