Canyoneering in Entrajo Canyon
Descend into hidden slots, rappel down sheer walls, and navigate pools in this classic Moab sandstone adventure.
Itinerary tips
- 1Wear closed-toe shoes with aggressive rubber grip, as you will be navigating steep, off-trail slickrock and potentially wet pools.
- 2Plan for a 4 to 5-hour round trip including the steep approach hike and three to four technical rappels.
- 3Carry at least two liters of water and high-energy snacks, as the physical exertion in the exposed sun is high.
- 4Park at the Entrajo Canyon trailhead off Spanish Valley Drive, ensuring your vehicle is fully off the narrow roadway.
- 5Check the flash flood forecast with the National Weather Service before heading out, as slot canyons provide no escape during rain.
- 6Pack a lightweight waterproof bag for your electronics if recent rains have filled the canyon's potholes.
