Moab Canyoneering - Ephedra's Grotto
Starting amongst ancient petrified sand dunes we hike our way downhill to a dry sand and rock wash. Quickly the wash disappears over an edge, plunging into the depths of a hidden chasm. "We go down there?" is the usual question after peering over the edge, and indeed we do! This exquisite rappel is the first obstacle in reaching the entrance to the amazing Grotto. Now, almost totally enclosed in a small stone room, we exit to find our next challenge; an incredible rappel into an alluring green canyon below via an enormous natural stone bridge! Detailed rappelling instruction and a back-up safety system allows even the first-time canyoneer a chance to experience this exciting activity. Insights into the geology, plant life and natural history provide a depth to your adventure. A cool spring-fed stream accompanies us for the rest of this outstanding and informational hike.

Arizona - Upper Grand Canyon 6/7 Day Rafting Trip
Many see the awesome beauty of the Grand Canyon from the rim each year, but few venture into its depths to know the canyon in a deeply personal and intimate way from the river. Any who have ventured into the depths of the Grand Canyon on the Colorado River will tell you that this trip with Western River Expeditions was a true life-changing experience never to be forgotten.
There is not another adventure on Earth to compare with a 6 or 7-Day Grand Canyon rafting vacation in the upper section of the Grand Canyon from Lee's Ferry to Whitmore Wash with Western River Expeditions.
The raw power of the rapids on the Colorado River will feed your adrenaline, stone monoliths on every side will humble you, and hidden in the canyons along the river you'll discover Maiden Hair ferns in waterfall grottoes from a fairy tale that will tease you into a trance.
