Description

Enjoy the Exertion of Scrambling, Climbing & Hiking!

Requiring more stamina than our 1/2 Day Trips, our “advanced” loops are still suitable for people of all skill levels who are used to the activity and will enjoy the exertion of scrambling, climbing, and hiking as well as the rope work of canyoneering.

You will spend 2 full days in the North Wash Area doing a myriad of fun skinny slot canyons.

For multi-day adventures, you can ride to the canyons and back with our guides each day from Moab, or opt to stay near Hanksville. Most of our guests choose Moab as their home base, enjoying the convenience of daily transport to and from the canyons with our shuttle service. If you're stoked to wake up right where the action is, camping or lodging near Hanksville is the way to go. We'll coordinate a meeting spot each day and bring you to the canyons, making it seamless to start your adventure.
No matter where you choose to bunk, we've got your logistics covered, so you can focus on the epic experiences ahead.

Cancellation Policy

Because a reservation guarantees space on a trip, we sometimes have to turn others away for those same dates. Thus, cancellations must be made at least two weeks prior to the trip dates in order to receive a full refund of the reservation deposit. Any cancellations made after the two-week cut off and up to 72 hours before the trip will forfeit $20 per person. To cover our costs, we must charge the full trip amount for any cancellations made less-than 72 hours before the trip. This policy includes lessening the number of participants in your party.

We will refund your entire trip amount if we must make a cancellation due to adverse weather. Please be aware that weather cancellations are made only by our guides, based on how climbing and canyoneering conditions are affected.
