Broadly thought of the very best slot canyon hike on the planet!
Michael Lanza wrote-up a terrific journey report:
Earlier than lengthy, the partitions stand barely greater than shoulder-width aside and maybe 100 ft tall and the sunshine on the backside of this slot canyon grows dim.
We downclimb a sturdy wood ladder put in for getting over a pour-off that drops a number of ft.
Little or no direct daylight reaches us now, solely the mirrored mild hitting the tops of those partitions and seeping downward. In uncommon locations the place the twisting canyon aligns with the solar, the sudden direct daylight feels intensely scorching, particularly in distinction to the nice coolness of the deep shade filling most of this slot.
