Amazing, fun canyoneering tour!
396breannm, September 2026
This was an amazing tour! We were a smaller group, just my partner and I as well as one lady there solo. Our guide Ryan was phenomenal! He was so laid back and easily walked us through how everything worked and making sure we were comfortable while also encouraging us to try different techniques. The canyon is beautiful, the terrain varies. We had a total of 5 repels - some big, some smaller. Even traveraing big rocks and slot canyon areas by foot was so fun. 10/10 highly recommend!

Great Experience For Families!!!

I had a great time on this tour. Our guide, Parker Grames was very professional throughout. I have no complaint except for when he made us call him "MC Parker" and made us listen to his mixtape and rate it out of 10.
