Waterholes Canyon

I was reminded, yesterday, of my first trip to Waterholes Canyon and thought I’d post a photo (scanned from slide) from that trip. It was taken in 1998 during an Arizona Highways Workshop to Northern Arizona. The guy taking a nap is our leader Jerry Sieve. He was really nervous that day because there was a definite threat of rain. Slot canyons are a dangerous place to be during a rainstorm so Jerry told us if we heard any thunder, we would be leaving immediately!

It was my first experience with slot canyons and I was blown away by the experience. However, my experience pales in comparison to Chris’ first trip there earlier this year. He had quite an adventure! CLICK HERE to check out some of his images from his trip.
