My husband were able to spend a couple days with Chris gaining and practicing new skills that are necessary to safely navigate some of Utah’s canyons. Chris is knowledgable, methodical and sequential with his teaching. We are excited to come back next year to practice!! I love canyoneering!!

See What Previous Adventurers Say
My son and I booked a day long Canyoneering adventure into Robber’s Roost. Met our guide Logan in Hanksville and drove out to the canyon. After a short, strenuous hike we started our descent. Logan was a great canyoneering instructor, providing clear, concise instructions. In no time we were rappelling down through a series of canyons. At no time did I feel unsafe. This trip exceeded my expectations and I look forward to doing it again.
This was an excellent guided trip. My husband rappelled at 50 for the first time with our 10 & 12 years olds. We felt very safe during the rappel. Appreciated the test run and the additional tips of securing chest for larger people while going down. Chris was great at talking us through the tough spots during the hike and during the rappel. He also helped all of us and made sure that we were all together working together. HE brought along a nice packet of trailmix for each person. I do think if possible it would have been great if he had shared more information about the surroundings. Maybe how they were formed, what made them unique, how they are retained etc. He did answer all the kids questions, but many times on these guides tours we love when the guide just talks and shares knowledge – Our kids seem to really enjoy this and learn so much more. In any case all of us loved the trip and we would definitely go with him again. Thanks Chris
We literally had a private half day tour. Chris fed us information so that we felt more comfortable with the height challenge facing us. The repelling and hike through the park were amazing. We would love to return one day to do a day long excursion with Chris.

We recently had the pleasure of hosting Utah Governor Spencer Cox and his family for a full-day canyoneering adventure at the Dirty Devil/Robbers Roost Wilderness. The Governor and First Lady had promised some family time and adventure for their daughter’s Spring Break. The family are definitely all natural born canyoneers. As the birthplace of US canyoneering, it’s great to have a Utah First Family that well represents this exciting outdoor adventure sport. One of the great benefits of an adventure at Robber’s Roost is in allowing us to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of modern-day life in order to find our true selves. This may have been exemplified for the Governor as he said, “I can’t remember the last time I didn’t have cell service for an entire day”. This is indeed one of the greatest reasons for getting out and experiencing the silence and solitude of the wild!

Experience One of Washington's Newest Sports This Summer - Swiftwater Canyoneering!
Swiftwater canyoneering may sound challenging, but with the support and guidance of a professional guide, canyoneering is a family-friendly adventure (for ages 12 and up). Canyons offer natural obstacle courses with plenty of unique and fun obstacles to navigate, which may include hiking, scrambling, wading, swimming and rappelling.
The ideal season for swiftwater canyoneering is mid-June through early September. With a shorter season and a limit of 6 guests per trip, we recommend you book your spot early to ensure availability.

Wondering what our Goblin's Lair Canyoneering Adventure is like? Our recent guests share their experience:
"We had THE BEST day with Jessica!! Our girls are not the best at (literally) stepping out on the edge but they loved this adventure! Jessica helped settled all nerves that our girls were having. She explained everything in detailed and gave our girls feedback to help them maneuver down into Goblin’s Lair. We have visited Zion, Bryce, Capital Reef and Arches. This adventure with Jessica is without a doubt the highlight of the trip for our family of four. Thank you for making an amazing family memory that will never be forgotten!!!!"
