As your guide—part naturalist, part amateur photographer—I’ll lead you through hidden terrain few have ever explored. We’ll journey through a narrow slot canyon, using our hands to navigate steep, rugged passages. Short sections may involve ropes and light scrambling, adding to the sense of adventure. Along the way, we’ll encounter striking sandstone formations, wind-carved caves, and breathtaking overlooks. The terrain can be demanding at times, but the reward is immense—panoramic views and a connection to the land that lingers long after the journey ends. This experience promises lasting memories and unforgettable photographs.

It was full of fun, adventure, beautiful views, and good information and inspiring thoughts from Granger. He takes lots of pictures of you too, so you don't have to worry about that. It was an excellent experience! But just be sure to wear shoes with treads. There are some slippery spots.

Matthew was great! The hike was amazing and Matthew’s knowledge of the history of the area made it even better. Furthermore, his perspective on how we can all do little things to make the world a better place was truly inspiring. I could not recommend this experience enough! It was our favorite activity of our trip.
