Buckskin Gulch (also known as Buckskin Creek, Buckskin Wash, and Kaibab Gulch) is a gulch and canyon located in southern Kane County, Utah, near the Arizona border in the Paria Canyon-Vermilion Cliffs Wilderness.[1] With a length of over 16 miles (26 km), it is one of the main tributaries of the Paria River, a tributary of the Colorado River.

Buckskin Gulch is one of the longest and deepest slot canyons in the Southwestern United States.[2][3][4][5]

Wire Pass,[6] a short tributary to Buckskin (and the most common means by which Buckskin Gulch is accessed), have features of narrow, curving features of the slot canyons.[7]
