This slot canyon is located in the Escalante area, best known for a pair of little arches at the entrance. Here the canyon can get very narrow but that just makes it more fun. There’s even a 10-foot scramble in order to enter. Here you will also often come across unavoidable water pools, so dress knowing that you will get wet. The best time to hike here is early in the morning when it is cooler. You’ll avoid any potential crowds as well.
You will find lovely Leprechaun Canyon off the beaten path, north of the gorgeous Glen Canyon. It is a notably deep canyon and if you hike it you will discover a notably beautiful endpoint. In fact, if you choose the family-friendly option, you will not encounter any dangerous sections. Additionally, it only takes a short hike to reach it. It’s close to the Colorado River crossing at the remote Ranger District of Hite, which is exceptionally scenic.
