This program combines everything you would want to do or see in the desert into a day long action packed program.
A rugged 4wd road leads to a spirited hike through a maze of red rock monoliths that seem to grow taller as you move deeper into the slickrock wilderness. At the head of a beautiful slot canyon we begin the instruction on rappelling and rock climbing techniques. Here you will learn the art of moving both up and down cliff faces under the instruction of professional climbing guides, who are as patient as they are encouraging. As you gain a new appreciation of what you are capable of achieving, each challenge becomes a new opportunity for self discovery. Next, we apply your new skills by working our way through one of the most intimate slot canyons in the region. Fluted stone ramps and deep pools lead through a solid block of Navaho sandstone. Here, the irresistible power of water has carved a deep channel through pure stone and in the process created a breath-taking underworld of light and texture. We emerge into the sunlight at the foot of the slot, scramble through a natural arch, then scramble and hike up to the top of a 500 foot long zip line. Soaring through the void, suspended 80 feet in the air, it is hard to imagine a more pure sense of flight, or a bigger adrenaline rush, but we aren't done yet. A final climb up a sandstone tower turns into a 120' free hanging rappel off of the backside. The sense of accomplishment is unavoidable as you gaze up at what you just came down and consider the obstacles overcome in the process.
By this point we are getting hungry, but this is the adventure where any old lunch spot just wont do. So we climb up into a large alcove on the side of a cliff and have a gourmet lunch while admiring the red rock wilderness.
As we hike back to the vehicle we pass by several ancient native American petroglyph and pictograph panels which put a final touch on a great day of adventure.
