The Left Fork of North Creek is one of many small rivers that cut into the high plateaus in the backcountry of Zion National Park, forming deep canyons that are often wide and V-shaped lower down, but become quite narrow upstream, with sheer cliffs of Navajo sandstone that rise to heights of 1,500 feet. North Creek splits into left and right forks but the canyon of the former (also known as Great West Canyon) is the most spectacular and easiest reached, famous in part because of a feature known as The Subway, where the creek flows almost through a tunnel - a long, tubular passage with only a narrow opening above.
