Unaweep Canyon is a geologically unique canyon that cuts across the Uncompahgre Plateau Mesa County in western Colorado. It is unique because two creeks East Creek and West Creek flow out of opposite ends of the canyon separated by the almost imperceptible Unaweep Divide. State Highway 141 runs inside Unaweep Canyon between Whitewater and Gateway one segment of the Colorado designated Unaweep/Tabeguache Scenic Byway.
