You step off the van into a cool pine-scented air, the canyon breathing below like a hidden engine. Water threads its way through granite and volcanic soil, daring you toward a line of waterfalls that drop in stepped tiers. Guides tighten harnesses, helmets click, and the canyon becomes a focused corridor of sound — water urging you forward, rock offering handholds.
