What To Expect
Adventurers will depart from Orderville in a customized off-road UTV vehicle and traverse the rugged backcountry trail to a breath taking Slot Canyon. The trail enters into a private access area, which few are privileged to experience. The ride is a thriller! You expert guide will ensure everyone's safety while guiding an unforgettable experience. And that is just the beginning of the tour! The trail will end at the mouth of a narrow, unique sandstone slot canyon with walls that tower up around you. Your guide will hike with you into the canyon and assist you over several large boulder sections that are 8-10 feet tall*, until you are ready to return to the vehicle. Within the canyon walls you will also see ancient Native American writings and learn about how these awe-inspiring canyons formed. After all of this (and plenty of pictures), we will return back to the starting point. *Please note you must be physically capable of climbing up and over 8-10ft tall boulders. This is a fairly strenuous tour. In certain months there may be standing water in the canyons. In this case, we will take an alternate route and keep our guests safe and dry! Please come prepared for cold weather.

5.00This trip was great! We showed up about an hour early and they offered to get us on our tour early. The weather was great, hot, but no rain! The canyons were great & the guys were very knowledgeable and helpful. Would recommend to anyone interested in seeing some sites off the beaten path!

5.00Be prepared for some light rock climbing! This was an absolutely breathtaking tour and while the physical exertion necessary surprised us, it was well worth it. Tori was a wonderful guide and shared a lot of interesting facts about the canyon and the properties we passed on the way to the canyon. The pictures she took of our family in the canyon were so cool. This was my son’s favorite activity of our whole trip. Highly recommend!!

5.00We didn’t know what to expect with our adventure as we seemed to be outside of Zion in this quaint town. Next thing we knew we were walking into the most beautifully crimson slot canyon after just a short UTV ride through some fun dirt and sand! The temps dropped and the sun encouraged the colors to dance inside the canyon! To top it off, we were worried because we started the adventure at noon on a hot day, but this gave us a very welcome reprieve from the blazing sun and burning heat! If you are planning a slot canyon tour unsure of timing and which gives the prettiest slot experience, then let me just say, go with East Zion in the middle of the hot day and allow the canyon and McCoy (our guide) to take care of you. You will not be disappointed!!!! McCoy, we sincerely thank you and Tori for the thoughtful, fun conversation, incredible knowledge, and your humble charm. Your love of the work shows!!!
