Wayne County Images
As a bird and wildlife photographer I believe that Wayne County is terrific because of all the birds and wildlife it has. The unique geology of the area makes for stunning vistas everywhere I have gone in the county. I could easily spend months at a time in Wayne County and still never see all that it has to offer.
The eastern border of Wayne County is delineated by the meanders of the Green River, which flows southward to discharge into the Colorado River. After the two rivers join, the combined southwestern flow forms the remaining portion of the county’s eastern border. The central part of the county is drained by the Fremont River and Muddy Creek. The Fremont begins at Fish Lake in Sevier County and flows into Wayne County near its northwestern corner. It joins the Muddy near Hanksville to form the Dirty Devil River, which flows southeastward out of the county’s southern border to discharge into Colorado. Wayne County terrain varies from rough forestland on the west to arid poor soil carved by drainages and rocky outcrops.
National forests/parks In Wayne County:
Canyonlands National Park
Capitol Reef National Park
Dixie National Forest
Fishlake National Forest
Glen Canyon National Recreation Area
