Visite privée de Buckskin Gulch

Aperçu
There are as many metaphors to describe what locals call 'down in the Buckskin' as there are people who have been there. I choose the word 'in' because you are literally inside the walls of the world's longest slot canyon.

According to the Bureau of Land Management ('BLM') website, Buckskin Gulch is 16 miles long (around 26 km) from the Buckskin Trailhead to the Paria Canyon and over 500 feet (around 150m) deep at its confluence with the Paria River. There are places in the Buckskin where you are able to touch both canyon walls at the same time.

Buckskin Gulch is a photographer's and hiker's Mecca. Every corner you turn is changing continuously; the cliffs are water-and-wind-sculpted patterns of colors, light and shadows. You may also marvel and puzzle at the meanings of the rock writings (petroglyphs) from the early Archaic period (some are as old as 9,000 years).

It was voted one the top 10 hikes in the world by National Geographic Adventure Magazine a few years back.

This was my first time hiking in the Buckskin Gulch. To be honest, I was unsure on what to expect. My family was told to meet our guide at the BLM visitor center, then our guide showed up, it was Yermo!! My wife had read so many amazing reviews about Yermo. I have to say they are all true. He has not only a plethora of knowledge about all things Buckskin but truly a renaissance man regarding everything else. I have never been a tour guide “ type of guy” but this was the best experience! Yermo not only made the experience wonderful but his demeanor and conversations made incredible. If you are reading this, use Yermo and his company, you have an amazing time!

This hike was the best park of an amazing vacation! The hike definitely would not have been the same without the guide, and specifically our guide, Hunter! If you can request him, we recommend you do. He was super nice and extremely knowledgeable. He felt like he was part of the family early on and really made our 6 and 7 year old kids comfortable, and had inside knowledge about some of their favorite video games. The hike is long - the longer you go, the more you see! With drive time we spent about 7 hours with Hunter and he was full of info, tips, tricks, local insights and more. The canyons are incredible and go on for miles. We found a comfortable stopping point before turning around but were not disappointed at all.

Our family of 4, including 11 and 12 year old daughters, did the Buckskin Gulch tour with Yermo and Hunter. As we hiked to the more remote entrance to Buckskin Gulch, Yermo made the "executive decision" to hike back to the Hummer and take the easier hike/route in. The decision was the right one, but the way he handled it was a bit condescending and was not particularly tactful. The other hike in was scenic and relatively easy. He mentioned it would be very crowded compared to the "harder" route in, however we did not find it that crowded. Yermo is very knowledgeable. His care of the environment and concern for the overuse of the area is his passion. That was his overarching message of the day. His assistant guide, Hunter, was amazing and really made our day. He engaged our kids at every turn, helped them when they needed it, and was a genuinely nice guy. He even hiked up the painted cliffs with our 12 year old, kept going all the way to the top, then proceeded to run down!! Left us shaking our heads....Hunter was amazing!
