Tank Canyon (I'll work on getting a better photo)


Description 

Tank Canyon is a quiet side canyon in American Fork Canyon. You will find shaded climbs on isolated limestone walls in variety of difficulties. Many climbs are short but challenging. A creek flows through the canyon during spring runoff but is mostly dry during hot summer months.

No camping is allowed in Tank Canyon. Please do your part to help keep this area clean.


Getting There 

Approach #1: Park at the gravel Hell Cave pull-out exactly 1 mile from the TCNM visitors center. Cross the road (north) and find the Tank Canyon trail.

Approach #2: Park at the gravel Membrane pull-out (100 yds further up the canyon), walk across the road and up the steep bank (shorter approach).
