Fry Canyon was a small settlement in San Juan County (Utah) , USA, at the exit of Fry Canyon, south of its confluence with White Canyon . Today it is abandoned and largely leveled.
During the 1950s, uranium ore was enriched in the village , which contaminated the soil with uranium, copper and radium.
The gorge of the same name begins near Utah State Route 95 with the Frylette (a short slot passage). It is a side canyon of the White Canyon into which it flows.
