Riddled with old mine shafts from the uranium boom times, the Butte is right across the Muddy River from Hondu Arch. A put-in for rafting when there is water in the Muddy, the area has many dispersed camping possibilities. Finishing Reds Canyon Loop whichever way you didn’t cover to get here will make you wonder why it isn’t all a national park.
