711 viewsWe spent a lot of time exploring this lower end of the slot canyon before going around this large blockage to get to its other side in the main and much deeper part of the slot Nov 17, 2016

664 viewsMajor obstacle at the slot canyon. Since there is deep water at the base of this 'blockage' it would require getting wet and also for us a rope to climb this vertically, and going underwater is no longer possible as the other side is now clogged with a strainer of debris. Most visitors here never enter the bowels of the slot but simply go around it. Our intentions was to go up the gut all the way so we would go around the right side of this 'blockage' and then descend back down into itNov 17, 2016

702 viewsThe gorge is filled with numerous pot holes carved out by millions of years of water flowing. Some of these are extremely deep and with the slick leaves you could easily slip into one. Many have slick sides so hiking here alone is definitely not advisable. Nov 17, 2016
