Water Canyon Adventure

Overview

Looking over the edge of a vertical cliff get ready to shout, 'ON RAPPEL!' Join up to nine other fellow adventurers on a six hour tour into the heart of an Arizona high country canyon. This 'choose your way' adventure will have you wading through a pine forest, rock hopping down a slippery wet wonderland, swimming under waterfalls, leaping into deep pools, sliding down natural waterslides, and taking a leap of faith over a 40ft foot jaw dropping rappel.

What To Expect

Adventure On Purpose

Rise with the sun to meet your guide in the Home of the World's Oldest Continuous Rodeo, Payson, AZ for a 7AM start time. Your six-hour canyon tour begins with an easy drive along the Mogollon Rim with high country mountain views all around. Keep your eyes open for antelope, elk, deer, bighorn sheep, mountain lion, turkey, black bear, or the newly re-introduced Mexican gray wolf. Buckle on your helmet and bow your head, praying for a fun filled day full of fellowship and safe adventures. Leaving the van behind to head out cross-country, you will be navigating your way through a pine tree forest. Once in the canyon bottom your swimming and rock hopping skills will be tested. The route continues to become more adventurous as slides, waterfalls, down climbs create fun obstacles to decipher. At times the best way may be sliding, jumping, being lowered, or rappelling to continue the journey. The adventure culminates as your group reaches the edge of a waterfall. With no where to go, but down, everyone gears up for a thrilling rappel into the deep pool below. The adventure is not over yet though as more full body exercise continues until the trip abruptly leaves the water behind and cuts out cross country once more. Your hard work is done as you pile into the shuttle vehicle. Enjoy the smooth drive back into civilization, exhausted and happy en-route to Payson.

Cancellation Policy

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

What an amazing adventure!!!! I have done this trip twice and will be back again! Brian and his son are very knowledgeable, encouraging, friendly and provide an exciting adventure. The views in the canyon are unbelievable! Brian and his son know the canyon very well, which made me feel very safe in all of the rappelling, jumping and swimming through the canyon. I highly recommend going!

I cannot begin to tell you what an amazing experience I had with this tour. I read the email that was sent and initially, I was a little apprehensive about this excursion but I decided that I will not back out because if it is adventure that I seek, this is definitely well fitted for me. Anyway, Brian and his 'canyon kids' made.me feel at ease and never once pressured me into doing something that I wasn't comfortable with. Actually, I was quite impressed with myself. If a 7 yr old can do it and have a great time, so can I. It was an experience of a lifetime. Highly recommended. Next time, I'll be bringing some people with me.❤
