Experience Canyoneering and Utah like few get to do. Find yourself in canyon country that is as vast as your imagination, and as untamed as your appetite for adventure. Stray from the beaten path to connect to a more wild place - beyond the National Park boundaries and into places few ever get to see. This is the version of wilderness that Edward Abbey only dreamed of. Immerse yourself in it, and see the desert from a perspective all your own.
Intimidated? Don't be. Every trip is customized to you and your group. Trust in guides who value your input, for whatever goals you have and whatever your life experience has been. In a place that holds a lifetime's worth of potential adventures, we work with you choosing canyons that feel as though the slots were carved just for you. Perhaps they were. From those looking to physically challenge themselves like never before, to those looking to behold landscapes like nowhere else, this trip has some of everything. The only thing missing is you. |

Details
North Wash Canyoneering is a physically exerting style that will push even the most tenured canyoneer. Each full day of thetrip is filled with the descent of an extremely technical, advanced canyon in a remote setting. The conditions in North Wash force teams to work together to achieve a desired outcome.
LOGISTICAL DETAILS:
- Age 18 or older
- Must be comfortable swimming in small pools of stagnant water (pond-like)
- Reasonably fit
- Comfortable in tight, confining spaces for extended periods of time
LOGISTICAL DETAILS:
- ZAC staff will arrive in North Wash on Thursday evening around 5:00 p.m. to make camp and cook a simple dinner. We recommend participants camp with us Thursday evening to be well rested for Friday's canyon descents.
- Camping in North Wash is primitive. There are no on-site facilities, though there is a public vault toilet 5 miles down the road at Hog Springs (thus, the dramatic early morning "Hog Run").
- Participants should be packed, clothed, and ready to depart for the canyons each day at 8:30 a.m. Please respect your fellow canyoneers by being prepared and prompt.
- If you have dietary restrictions or strong preference, please provide them to us so we can compose a menu fitting your needs.
