The rappelling experience takes you to a remote Arizona canyon, featuring a 120-foot technical rappel. Along the way, you’ll learn proper rappelling technique, safety systems, and rope skills from your certified guide. The canyon features narrow passages, smooth rock walls, and dramatic drops that create an unforgettable adventure.
