Wear grippy footwear
Sturdy, well-broken-in trail shoes with good traction make the 20–30 minute approach and slippery canyon moves safer and more comfortable.
Bring a reusable water bottle
Hydrate frequently—carry at least 1.5–2 liters and refill where guides indicate to avoid dehydration in the sun-drenched valleys.
Jumps are optional
Cliff jumps and some rappels are discretionary; let guides know your comfort level and they’ll suggest alternatives if you prefer to walk around.
Protect electronics
Stow phones and cameras in a waterproof case or leave them with the guide; canyon pools and slides are unavoidable and devices can be lost.
Sturdy trail shoes
Good traction and ankle support help on rocky approaches and wet canyon rock.
Swimwear and quick-dry layer
Wear under provided jumpsuit for swims; quick-dry clothing reduces chill after water sections.
summer
1.5–2 L reusable water bottle
Carry enough water for long, exposed sections between refills.
Waterproof pouch for phone/ID
Keeps valuables safe during swims and cascades.
