Best of Canyoneering Adventure Tour Itinerary*:

Day 1
The day starts with a brief practice session to cover canyoneering techniques and build confidence for the upcoming canyoneering adventures. Our canyon of the day is well off the beaten path and in fact, is protected for solitude. While our total hiking distance for the day is a mere two miles, the obstacles that the canyon presents will ensure a full, adventurous day. This classic, well-rounded canyon offers 3-4 rappels up to 90 feet, sustained easy to moderate scrambling throughout the canyon, and several challenging sections of beautiful, tight narrows. If you enjoy a good obstacle course, you will love this canyon!

Day 2
Today's canyon has been described as magical, enchanting, and wonder filled. Perhaps this is because it possesses one of the most spectacular rappels in southern Utah - through a natural sandstone arch. The entire route traverses through the Navajo Sandstone unit which lends itself to beautifully sculpted canyons. Today's route requires far less scrambling than yesterday, offering a less physically demanding day. This canyon's adventure will be found with four unique rappels, including a free rappel (no feet touching the rock), and navigating a semi-keeper pothole obstacle. After our last rappel, we will admire two petroglyph panels, of Barrier and Fremont origins.

Day 3
We will explore far off the grid today into Robber's Roost country - one of the most spectacular and remote wilderness areas in the United States. The region gets its name from several bands of outlaws, most notably Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, who used these remote, challenging canyons as a hideout. Our canyoneering route is well known for its challenging sections of beautiful, tight narrows and offers four rappels as we make our way through the canyon. The canyon presents one final obstacle to overcome before we part ways after three days of epic adventures.

FAQ
Do I have to have canyoneering experience for this trip?
Most guests that join us for a trip or tour are complete beginners who have never rappelled before. We review rappelling and canyoneering techniques with guests before we enter the canyon, making our trips suitable for complete beginners. Guests should be able to hike 3-4 miles in moderate terrain, sometimes uphill, to ensure a more comfortable experience.

If you would like to join the retreat and share a room, we will match you with a roommate of the same sex, if one is available.
Can my dietary needs be accommodated?
Dietary needs or restriction can be accommodated within our abilities provided that you notify us at least six weeks in advance.
