Explore the slot canyon formations of Peekaboo Slot Canyon, Dry Fork Slot Canyon, and Spooky Slot Canyon in Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument on a guided 4×4 tour and hike from Escalante.

 

EXPERIENCE:

Drive in 4×4 vehicle 45 minutes to an hour on a dirt road to Dry Fork trail head. 6 mile loop hike through Dry Fork, Peek-a-boo and Spooky slot canyons. Note: Spooky is very very narrow and not all people can fit through it and it can be skipped if needed.

Peekaboo Canyon: The slot canyon is most famous because of the last 100 meters, before the junction with Dry Fork of Coyote Gulch – here the ravine cuts deeper into the sandstone, with a series of interlinked potholes, extravagant swirls and fins of rock, and several arches; these different openings and the many corners and crevices account for the curious name of this canyon.

Spooky Slot Canyon: Only 10 inches wide at some points, Spooky is appropriately named. It is possible to travel almost halfway through before the first of two climbs, so go ahead and squeeze through as far as you dare.

We will meet behind the Sinclair gas station in Escalante. There is plenty of parking there.
