Great slot canyon! Interesting geology. Jeff was our guide and he was outstanding! He was very helpful with our group of seniors! (only one ladder) Because he grew up in this area he was very knowledgeable about history, geology, botany....... Great company Yermo has: Seeking Treasure Adventures. I will recommend our tours to friends for sure. Can't wait to show my photos of both trips with friends and family.

Our private tour with Angie was awesome. She was super knowledgeable about the plants, geology, and the history of the region. We had our dog along and she definitely made us all comfortable and safe.
I was really appreciative of all of her efforts.
We had booties for our dog but did not end up using them--it wasn't as hot as we thought it would be.
She also gave us tips and shared knowledge on our next stop in the journey--Zion National Park.

We were a bit disappointed when our guide Brand advised against hiking through Buckskin Gulch as we had originally scheduled, due to its then current ankle-deep mud. But we loved our consolation prize, as we visited a series of astonishing and seldom-visited landscapes across Vermillion Cliffs National Monument, Marble Canyon and Lake Powell, along with lunch (which we provided) at the Dinosaur Museum in Big Water. We got some of the best photos of our entire vacation during this tour. Brand knows the area’s majestic terrain like the back of his hand, and he drives across its rugged back roads as effortlessly as you or I would drive through our own neighborhoods. We enjoyed hearing his informed explanations of the local geology as well some hilarious accounts of his recent tours. We would gladly ramble with Brand again. Highly recommended! (and be sure to ask him about The Wave).

the entire experience was amazing from the moment we were picked up and driven to the trailhead. Perfect. The hike itself was very tough as we took the Middle Route to descend which entails climbing down the sheer rockface! On the way the guide BRAND, was excellent! he pointed out the vegetation uniqueness, some Indian pottery and flint peices that were in the ground, helped with pictures and generally looked after our safety!!

My girls and I booked this trip back in January but due to a flash flood the night before our trip, buckskin and wire pass were closed. Our guide, Brand, asked us if we wanted to go the middle route instead. We said yes, not knowing it was a class 3 & 4 hike. It was incredible. Brand talked to us about all the history and showed us petroglyphs along the way. We had to go down a very steep descent into the gulch and being afraid of heights, I was terrified. Brand was so patient and helped me navigate down and back up. The gulch had water in it due to the flash flood but that made it even more incredible. Brand was a fantastic guide and I would request him again and recommend him to anyone needing a guide.
