Heading down the highway towards page we check out another short canyon right off the highway. This canyon is straightforward could be done as a lunch hour meetup. The cream colored canyon walls and somewhat deep and shallow sections of the canyon gave away some decent scenery for this desert drainage.

Don’t let that sway you away, I must also include that for the relative shortness that this canyon is, the scenic and straightforward raps make this one a “must stop “ along the way. The approach...
