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!!

Learn About The Places We Call Home Away From Home
Both Utah and Washington have some of the most breathtaking locations in the entire country, even though you may not find them in the guidebooks. That’s what we pride ourselves on here at Get in the Wild — sharing the most beautiful slot canyons and mountain vistas that we’ve encountered on our own personal adventures. We know these areas like the backs of our hands, and are more than happy to share every nook and cranny with you. Trust us — you won’t regret it. Take a closer look at the places we guide by visiting the pages below.
Let Us Share Our Years Of Expertise With You
There is probably only one thing that we love more than sharing our love of the outdoors with our guest — imparting our carefully cultivated knowledge of how to navigate the ins and outs of the incredible landscapes that our unique planet has shared with us. Whether you’re looking to navigate the backcountry(opens in a new tab), learn all the technicalities about canyoneering(opens in a new tab), or even climb a glacier(opens in a new tab), there is no challenge too great for our team. We’ll be with you every step of the way, too — you’ll learn all of the best and safest techniques with our experienced team, no matter what the course material.

As premiere outdoor outfitters, we like to provide our guests with as many useful services as possible.

If you need help getting from point A to point B, then take a look at our shuttle service(opens in a new tab) to put your mind at ease.
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.

In recognition of @visitutah's Tourism Day On The Hill, we wanted to take a moment to highlight Utah’s new Governor Spencer Cox and his wonderful wife Abbey. They along with a group of their family and friends spent an exciting day Canyoneering at Robbers Roost with us a few years ago. In our view, anyone that can rappel down a 100ft cliff face exemplifies “Life Elevated” and is well suited to govern our amazing state. Maybe next year Governor, you can convince them to have a Tourism Day In The Wild! You can even show us the ropes. 😊

The Power of Community.
"Accomplishing something that seemed so out of reach forced me to fundamentally change my beliefs about who I am. And to me, that is a huge part of the power of not going it alone: You become better than you ever believed possible." ~ Jen Waak
One of the most powerful things we learned this past year is the unwavering power of community. We are all intricately connected to one another and when we reach out to help one another, we reinforce those strands of the web making it stronger, more resilient.
We would love to hear about your experiences of community in 2020. Please share your stories of kindness, hope, teamwork and resilience in the comments below. ...
