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.

Check out this inspirational story in the @Washingtonpost written by our associate and fellow canyoneer Dina Mishev. The story takes place at one of our favorite places to guide at the newly designated San Rafael Swell Wilderness. Dina eloquently demonstrates the incredible healing properties of nature and solitude and the perseverance of the human spirit. Over the years we have facilitated tours for those that are blind, those with hip and knee replacements, Parkinson's, recent personal loss and a myriad of others. Follow Dina on an incredible canyoneering journey at the San Rafael Swell.

The power of nature never fails to amaze us. Rains brought flash floods to canyon country today.
A few tips for staying safe in canyon country:
1 - Stay in tune with the weather forecast.
2 - Pay attention to what’s happening with the weather directly around you.
3 - Ask for, and heed, advice from local ranger stations regarding safety and weather.
4 - As you make your way though canyon country, always be looking for possible escape routes should there be a flood event.
Stay safe!

Have you ever tried a guided rappel? A guided rappel utilizes a separate tensioned line to keep rappelers out of a variety of canyoneering obstacles including waterfalls, high flow and potholes. We teach these techniques in our advanced canyoneering courses in both Utah and Washington as well as on some of our guided Ultimate Adventure Canyoneering tours. Did we mention they are fun too!
