Don't Go On
The river flowing through the Urique Canyon continues into back country controlled by marijuana farmers. Hikers have entered; not all have returned.
About this place:
Located in the Sierra de Tarahumara, Copper Canyon - or the Barranca del Cobre - is said to be one of five canyons in the state of Chihuahua, Mexico, which are deeper and larger than the Grand Canyon in Colorado. A rail passenger through the canyon will still meet Indians living in modified cliff dwellings, pass men jogging up mountainsides with 20 foot logs on their backs, and have the opportunity to stay in tiny accommodations where the power generator is only cranked on a few hours a day.
