Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Use American English In-Ko-Pah Gorge is a deep narrow canyon or gorge in San Diego and Imperial counties, California, and was originally known as Myer Canyon.[1][2] Its head is at Шаблон:Coord at an elevation of Шаблон:Convert.[2] Myer Creek flows down the In-Ko-Pah Gorge from its source in the Jacumba Mountains at the head of the canyon to its mouth at an elevation of Шаблон:Convert, then eastward to its mouth where it settles into the sands of the Yuha Desert, east of Ocotillo.[3][2] Boulder Creek enters the canyon at its confluence with Myer Creek, a little over Шаблон:One2a below the source of Myer Creek, at an elevation of Шаблон:Convert.[4]

In-Ko-Pah Gorge carries the eastbound lanes of Interstate 8 through the In-Ko-Pah Mountains, while the westbound lanes use a different alignment through Devils Canyon.[5] The road can be subject to closure in adverse weather conditions. During Hurricane Hilary in 2023, the highway closed due to a massive rockslide.[6]
