Early on, Charles pointed out this little caterpillar. They occasionally get blown into the canyon from the top. Unfortunately it's a death sentence for them.
Our guide, Robert, pointed out this abandoned owl's nest.
A few, small, scrubby bushes had taken a foothold in the canyon.
"The tongue" formation.
After an initial walkthrough, we were left alone, to wander the canyon at leisure for a little over an hour. It was a great opportunity.
Charles was very patient with me, carrying my camera bag and waiting as I snapped shots in a fury. He's the best.
Walking back to the truck afterwards, Robert pointed out the local version of Utah's Rainbow Bridge (albeit on a very tiny scale.)Next stop; Horseshoe Bend

I did use a slot canyon in "Under the Ember Star" so I got some out of it for sure
The beauty of the canyon is outstanding. Great photography! I love the different shades of red.

Lana, love the colors on these photos, the canyons are just beautiful. Great photos.
Cloudia and Eileen; Thank you kindly!
All I can say is... WOW!
Michelle; That's about what we said, too. :)
Gorgeous, but slot canyons sure can be dangerous during the monsoons.
Travis; Definitely. Our guide told us some horrific stories, but we were okay!
