Canyon Adventure Half-Day

A shorter version of our popular Canyon Adventure Day, this trip takes you into a true super-slot canyon, via rappelling, hiking, and down-climbing, and still makes time for a great hike in the afternoon.

- No experience required
- Age 5 or older recommended

Descent of a canyon that includes, but is not limited to:

- 10- to 25-minute hike w/ 200-foot elevation gain
- Downclimbing narrow, twisted, super-tight slots
- Up to 3 rappels, 20 to 50 feet in length
- Possible wading in canyon pools

Designed for individuals and small groups who are looking for a fun and adventurous introduction to technical canyoneering. Generally, the day is more fast-paced than a Family Adventure Day with an opportunity to gather with other individuals seeking the same.

You will learn and apply:

- Knots, ropes & anchors
- Belay & safety systems
- Rappelling
- Canyoneering basics
- "Leave No Trace" practices

Can provide some of the necessary skills needed to descend the following canyons in Zion:

- The "Subway"
- Keyhole Canyon
- Orderville Canyon

If you seek to gain qualifications as a self-guided canyoneer through this course or desire to attempt more difficult descents than those suggested above, check out Half-Day Basic, One-Day Basic, or Three-Day Basic.

We provide all the necessary technical gear for your experience, but recommend you bring:

- 1 quart of water/person + lunch/snacks for the day
