Angel Slot Canyon | Stairway to Heaven???

This Hike and Technical Canyoneering Descent in the North Wash Area of Utah is Spectacular and Unique! Not only was the Canyon a Beautifully Sculpted Slot, the Greater Area was an Incredible and Wild Landscape of Slick Rock Domes and Outcroppings running along the Dirty Devil River.
PLEASE NOTE - Always use proper Safety gear. I set a poor example by not using a helmet for this Adventure. Canyons can be especially dangerous because they can funnel rockfall from personnel above or simply from pulling your rope and often there is little room to escape! I will be using helmets on a regular basis moving forwards. I have had one minor injury in the past where a helmet would have prevented it. . . .

Keep on bringing the obscurity! Just when you think there can't be anything this great you haven't heard of, KD presents again...

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

Thanks 👍. I guess the enjoyment of discovery is pretty strong for me. Plus, and this is big, the path less trodden can hold great adventure and beauty, right up there with the big names. 😉

Great video. Utah is amazing. The slot looks beautiful.

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

Appreciate it! Great area for sure, the adventure possibilities seem endless, truly... Karl 👍

[@lynnnorthrup8914]

That was a beauty! The slot was cool, but the surrounding slick rock was amazing. Another great adventure. Thanks for sharing. Coming your way this Wednesday to hike, REI, and Sam’s.

We really appreciate you taking the massive effort to bring these adventures to us! Hoping you're starting to get the recognition you so deserve for the production values we all enjoy 👏👏!!

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

Of course my Brother! Of course 👍

[@TrekkingTheRockies]

Wow! Sometimes your adventures leave me speechless. Such a beautiful and unique area to explore. Thanks for taking us along.

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

Awesome to hear those kind words from you! Really means a great deal. That area is special! Cheers, Karl 👍

[@dansouth2088]

Holy shit, this is awesome Karl! This is so unique and fun, not sure why more people (including myself) aren't doing things like this. Makes me really wish I lived out west!! Keep the vids coming!! PS - Loved the intro music. PSS - Stupid question - so I assume you test those anchors and replace if need be?

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

Great to hear that Dan, I really got juiced over this one! Yes, a great place to live, close to so much, it's been a great time... Thanks again my friend 👍!! Karl

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

And yes, anchors are inspected and replaced if necessary. All the ones on this route were double/redundant at the time.

[@dansouth2088]

@@KarlDeckerPresents - Awesome, thanks!!

[@rongibson6281]

This was great to watch but would be way to closed in for me, if I was a climber. Love to watch you thou.

[@KarlDeckerPresents]

Thanks Ron! Let me tell you that you aren't alone, I don't have claustrophobia but if I did, this one would have been pushing it! Karl
