Sand, Slot, and a 200‑Foot Cove: The Combo Peek-A-Boo & Great Chamber UTV Tour.
This guided UTV adventure compresses two of Escalante’s signature experiences into a single 3.5‑hour outing: a fast, sandy run to the Great Chamber where you can unwind in an epic 200‑foot cove, then a rip across dunes to the tight, photogenic turns of Peek‑A‑Book Slot Canyon. Expect purposeful, guided time in striking desert terrain and short hikes at each destination.
