Start of Uintah and Ouray Reservation, River Left

For the next approximately 60 miles, down to the Coal Creek confluence, the land on river left is part of the Uintah and Ouray Reservation and managed by the Ute Indian Tribe. While recreational permits were available, the tribe suspended all recreational permits for non-tribal members due to repeated violations. This restriction is currently indefinite and prohibits all camping, hiking, or firewood gathering on tribal land.
