20160327 Peekaboo and Spooky Slot Canyons
My first slot canyons! Another extremely neat place along Hole in the Rock road by Escalante! This one took a walk into Peekaboo, then upon emerging and a short hike, entering Spooky and emerging back towards the trail again.
This was a terrific experience that made me very glad to meet fellow hikers to pull, push and shove through the canyons! The entry to Peekaboo was quite a decently high 'cliff' to climb, and inside it was clambering up various obstacles and up the corkscrew. Upon descending down Spooky which was extremely tight, we came across a point that looked like around a fifteen foot drop. We later located a tiny area to squeeze into into an eight foot drop. On the latter half of the canyon, I can't see how people much bigger than me could make it through!
Gorgeous sights and great company made for a memorable trip :)
