Out of Kanab, a luxury UTV cuts through red-rock backcountry to two of the region’s secretive spectacles: the narrow, sculpted passages of Peekaboo Slot Canyon and the cavernous sweep of the Great Chamber. Local, multi-generation guides steer the route, share geology and histories, and stage a fresh lunch in the landscape, making the trip as much about stories and sustenance as about scenery.

Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE LANDSCAPE

Peekaboo Slot Canyon — Narrow Red-passages

Explore the narrow, sculpted corridors of Peekaboo Slot Canyon (also called Red Canyon), a geological highlight of the route that rewards close-up examination of sandstone forms.

THE PANORAMA

The Great Chamber — A Natural Amphitheater

Reach the Great Chamber for sweeping, panoramic views; accessing the viewpoint requires a short hike and delivers the kind of expansive solitude found away from the main parks.

THE RIDE

Luxury UTVs, Local Guides, and Trail Lunch

Drive a top-of-the-line UTV, follow an experienced local guide, and enjoy a freshly prepared lunch with charcuterie and an array of snacks and beverages served out on the trail.
