Hells Canyon

Hells Canyon (et non pas Hell's Canyon[1]) est un canyon de 16 km de long situé au Nord-Est de l'Oregon et à l'Ouest de l'Idaho aux États-Unis. C'est aussi le plus profond de l'Amérique du Nord (2 436 m) et l'attraction principale du Hells Canyon National Recreation Area.

Il a été creusé par la rivière Snake, affluent du Columbia.
