Slot canyons are muddy. Bring extra shoes. Backpacks are tough in spooky. Bring first aid. We had to help woman with sprained ankle get out of canyon and called for helicopter rescue. Bring electrolytes for your water.

this trail is NOT easy in midsummer in 100° heat - people have gotten disoriented, collapsed and died way finding cross country between the slots - TAKE EXTRA WATER. in cooler weather, it’s a fairly easy trail. watch for the occasional pygmy rattlesnake in Spooky.

Pretty fun but mostly just walking through a tight slot in the sand. Got a little to far right on the hike back up

We made both Peekaboo and Spooky with 3.5 and 1 y olds. Spooky is very tight in places. Do not bring bulky carriers if you go with little ones. Better bring good attitude and plenty of water. Please follow entrance-exit directions for canyons since there is a place with a rope and a hole in Spooky where you will do 10 feet drop. It will be hard to climb up with kids if you go opposite direction. Basically start with Peekaboo and go clockwise and you’ll be good. Some places were tricky but doable. Wear nice hiking boots with rubber soles which can hold you tight on slick stone.

Hands down my favorite hike. A little tricky going down through Spooky with Remy, I would likely run it backwards (Start with spooky then move to peekaboo) next time. So much fun playing and v bombing through these canyons!

Beautiful hike. Descend into canyon through Fence Canyon approach then back cross country. Very strenuous hike on the way back cross country. Steep incline in sand and slick rock. Bring lots of water.
