The Canyon X portion is mostly walking on sandy footing with some narrow sections and short steps; people should have moderate mobility and avoid if they have serious back or heart conditions.

This area sits on the Navajo Nation; slot canyons formed over millions of years by episodic flooding through Navajo Sandstone and hold cultural significance to local communities.
The sandstone walls are fragile—touching accelerates erosion. Stay on trails, follow guide instructions, and avoid leaving waste; water conservation is also important in this arid landscape.
