Plan on mostly high temperatures in the 90s°F, though Bryce Canyon, at a higher elevation, is cooler but can still reach into the 80s°F during the day. This can be great weather for lots of sun and outdoor enjoyment with proper hydration, and nice cool downs at night.

3 PM | Guided Canyoneering Tour - Ephadra's Grotto

Ephedra’s Grotto begins with a short hike across ancient petrified sand dunes, leading into a dry rock wash. Quickly the wash turns into a dry waterfall that seems to almost disappear into the tightest, deepest rain gutter imaginable. “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, totally enveloped in a small stone room, whose floor rarely sees the light of day, we exit to find our next challenge: a jaw-dropping rappel into the alluring green canyon below next to an enormous natural stone bridge — the 6th largest natural land bridge in the world! A cool spring-fed stream accompanies us for the rest of this outstanding hike, exiting into the Colorado river corridor.
