2022 - West - May 30 - Orderville UT - Red Hollow Slot Canyon

 Being gluttons for slot canyons, we found another just north of Kanab in Orderville - Red Hollow. It was beautiful but cut short by a few rockfalls. I was able to get over a few but then one was too much - even for Vaughan.



The first obstacle was not bad at all.




The next was a little higher and a crawl over.

This was taken on the other side of the 3rd obstacle. You should have seen Vaughan dragging me up and over that boulder I'm sitting on. The other side was a heck of a drop. 


The next was a tighter squeeze and uphill crawl to get to the big rock.

A little bridging and Vaughan was up and over.

The last was where he had to call it quits. First crawling up a limb to get to a rope to haul yourself up and over a boulder - a valiant effort but common sense won out. My begging him to stop helped.
