The Colorado River winds through a huge mud deposit, left behind as the waters of Lake Powell receded.  We flew past the concrete boat ramp of the Hite Marina, which was a mile from the river.  The ramp looked like a perfect landing spot.

This is a bay, nearly cut off from the Colorado River.

    Ken, we gotta get out there ... it's not too far a flight from you. Imagine camping on the side of this river (is that "legal" Jeff?) Thanks so much for posting !!!

    Yea @XCTriker that looks like a great spot for sure!

    I think it is a muddy quagmire there.  There are better spots to camp next to a river (Dirty Devil being best) throughout Southern Utah.
