  • Its origin is in Southwestern Utah, at the Navajo Reservoir in the Dixie National Forest, north of Zion National Park, and is formed by the confluence of the East Fork Virgin, that flows through Mount Carmel Junction on the east side of Zion National Park and Parunaweap Canyon, with the North Fork Virgin River, that flows from Navajo Lake through Zion Canyon in Zion National Park. The river flows in a southwesterly direction, passing south of the old townsite of St. George where the Santa Clara River joins the Virgin at a place the Paiutes called Tonaquint. The river then flows across the northwestern corner of Arizona through the Virgin River Gorge and past the towns of Beaver Dam and Littlefield. It enters southern Nevada near the town of Mesquite and empties into the Colorado at the Lake Mead reservoir, approximately 40 miles (64 km) east of Las Vegas. The last 30 miles (48 km) of the Virgin River forms the north arm of Lake Mead.

    There were a few moments where I was sweating the fact that a piece of flying water was going to take out the drone. Those are some crazy good piloting skills!

    Thanks. This is the same river where i live upstream. I always wonder what happens when it goes through that country. We are sad right now because that poor young woman from Tucson got taken by a flash flood.
    This was a good video.

      That one was close but the closest call was the last clip on the video. I almost hit that tree 😂
