After meeting your guides and other participants of the group (either at the staging area in the Heart Creek Trail parking lot or after being picked up from your hotel), it is an approximate 1.5 hour drive by van to the starting location of the canyon a 30-45 min hike will bring you to the top of the canyon adventure. Everyone suits up, and in order to ensure safety your guides will go thru a mandatory rappel and rope safety clinic with all participants. There are a total of 4 rappels, interspersed with some scrambling, hiking, as well as several slides and easy but fun pool jumps. The entire canyon takes approximately 3 - 4 hours to descend.
