This canyoneering outfitter near Kanab consistently delivers exceptional experiences across all skill levels, from complete beginners to experienced adventurers. The guides, particularly Nathan, Darren, Jillian, and Brett, earn praise not just for their technical expertise and safety focus, but for their ability to read groups and adapt on the fly. Reviewers mention guides patiently working with people afraid of heights, accommodating language barriers, and finding creative solutions for families with varying fitness levels. Several locals use them repeatedly, which says a lot about their access to private lands and hidden spots most visitors would never find. The flexibility really stands out. When weather doesn't cooperate or someone's comfort level shifts, guides seamlessly adjust plans to create memorable experiences anyway. Families appreciate how they coordinate logistics like pickup and drop-off at lodging, while photography-minded travelers love that guides willingly snap photos without extra charges. The technical instruction for rappelling gets consistently high marks for being thorough yet accessible. Many reviewers specifically mention returning multiple times or already planning their next adventure, with several calling it the highlight of their entire Utah trip.
Had a great time. Went canyoneering through The Huntress. My guide Jillian was very professional at all times. I made several rappels, she made me feel confident and safe while hanging 50foot in the air. I recommend The Huntress or some other technical slot canyon. I'm a 65 year old man in good health if I can do it you can too.
