Escalante Slot Canyons

We drove to the canyons for one hour on the Hole- in the Rock- Road.   This is a washboard road -very rough.

We stopped halfway at devils garden. This was a stop with restrooms and some interesting rock formations.



The two canyons we visited were Spooky and Peek-a-boo.

It was very difficult to find the way to the canyons. I recommend a guide to take you to these canyons.  We had someone lead us that had been there before.

We had to walk along a ledge to get to the wash trail.

The landscape had many desert plants.


Walking along the wash.


Peek -a Boo canyon begins with a steps up. There was a pothole that is always filled with water.  I removed my hiking shoes.

The canyons were so fun , we never knew what adventure was ahead.







The washes were so wide and the dirt was a beautiful red color.

The textures in the canyon were so unusual.

Heading back to the cars.
