Seeking slot canyons in Grand Staircase-Escalante




Located between Bryce Canyon and Capitol Reef, Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument is an expansive place for outdoor adventure without the crowds of nearby National Parks. It extends over 1.9 million acres and is named for the Escalante River Canyons and for the Grand Staircase, a series of colorful cliffs extending north from the North Rim of the Grand Canyon to Bryce Canyon. Since we have been most recently in high country, our focus here are slot canyons! FYI, great little BBQ place in Tropic called IDK BBQ with some surprising national writeups and awards for a small-town spot.
