Fantastic guided hike from 300 feet down through the slot canyons. Beautiful views!!! Granger was very knowledgeable about the area.

As your guide—part naturalist, part amateur photographer—I’ll lead you through hidden terrain few have ever explored. We’ll journey through a narrow slot canyon, using our hands to navigate steep, rugged passages. Short sections may involve ropes and light scrambling, adding to the sense of adventure. Along the way, we’ll encounter striking sandstone formations, wind-carved caves, and breathtaking overlooks. The terrain can be demanding at times, but the reward is immense—panoramic views and a connection to the land that lingers long after the journey ends. This experience promises lasting memories and unforgettable photographs.

The views on this hike were amazing and one of the best parts of our 3-day trip to San Diego. My husband, 14 yr old son and I thought this hike had the right amount of challenge: not easy but not too difficult to complete. If you have a fear of heights, there are definitely some spots you will feel uncomfortable. Granger was an awesome guide and coached us through the trickier parts of the trail. He was patient, respectful of the terrain and the group's abilities and shared a great deal of knowledge about the surroundings. A must-do if you're in decent shape and like a physical challenge with amazing views during your stay in the San Diego area!

Granger was amazing! Incredible slit canyon tour. We did it at our own pace. Need to be able to scramble over rocks and walk through narrow slit canyons. Granger inspired us by having us repeat 1, 2, 3 and breathe worth it!

We had an awesome experience with Granger on our hike through the Slot Canyons. He is knowledgeable and attentive to his guests. Granger’s wisdom and love for nature is contagious. He also took beautiful photos for our group. It is not a ‘easy’ hike by any means but it is worth it! Wear appropriate hiking shoes if possible, and bring a small backpack for water if you have it - you will need your hands free. I will carry this lesson I learned from Granger: Don’t worry about steps 7,8,9 - just focus on steps 1, 2, 3 and the rest will follow.
