Dust River Canyon is a half-mile wide gash in the landscape, running forty miles southeast from the edge of the Blooming Wastes. A sheer, crumbling switchback leads to its base where thick clouds of red dust some 2 feet thick swirl, resisting all attempts to settle or disperse. Stalking predators move unseen within the dust, emerging from caves in the canyon walls.

Leads to The Blooming Wastes and Gopher Gulcch.
