The ULTIMATE weekend in Grand Staircase-Escalante (Lower Calf Creek Falls + Peek-a-boo & Spooky)

[@twaltdwan9153]

Thank you for taking us along

[@stevedietrich8936]

Woah! Those were some narrow slots. Shoutout to Josh for helping you guys through. Utah 12 is an amazingly beautiful highway.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

We loved Highway 12! What a gorgeous drive! 😍😍

[@petem6846]

Another great video! You do a great job of finding wonderful things which have been off the beaten track. Great images of Highway 12 between Escalante and Boulder starting about 5:15. Great road and great scenery! Thanks for showing the Burr Trail--always wondered about it. The Hole in the Rock road was amazing to see--and real slow to drive. Wonderful views of the slot canyons!

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Thank you so much, Pete!

[@sudarshana4178]

This must be so enchanting. This might be the best experience from your trip in Utah.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

It is definitely in the top 3 things we did!

[@brookecrothers5976]

Kona makes my heart so happy ❤️❤️

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Us too! ❤️ Most of the time 😅😅

[@OurNationalAdventure]

LOVE the peek a boo portion! What an incredible experience! Tight tight tight!

[@OurNationalAdventure]

And thank GOODNESS no flash floods ! That's a scary place to be if it floods ♡

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Oh for sure! We would never do this hike if it was going to rain. We actually delayed it a day due to some light rain to be careful. It was such a fun experience!

[@MrsMajorHoff]

Breakfast burrito connoisseur!! Still laughing! And that shrug when getting passed by other cars- classic! Looks like a ton of fun & what perfect timing for y'all to have a helpful person like Josh around!

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Hahaha the shrug makes me laugh every time! 😂😂

[@benc.8103]

We loved the calf creek hike. We even swam in the water it was really cold even in August!!

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

We would’ve loved to swim!

[@garygus5966]

I am so glad you went to lower calf creek falls! It is so beautiful. Utah, a place I call home!

Hi Guys..Good to see Kona is taking charge on this first hike!

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Hahaha she loves to take charge of everything! 😅😬

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

As we mentioned in our previous slot canyon video, NEVER enter a slot canyon if there is rain in the forecast for the surrounding area. Slot canyons can flash flood quickly! ⬇️ Read our guides for the hikes in this video adventuresofaplusk.com/hiking-to-lower-calf-creek-falls adventuresofaplusk.com/exploring-the-peek-a-boo-and-spooky-slot-canyons ⬇️ Watch more Utah Vlogs & read all of our Utah guides kzbin.info/aero/PLZKRTK1yCEM4zKHtthhqfdRyfo3hT7UW- adventuresofaplusk.com/category/utah/ See ALL of our gear: adventuresofaplusk.com/resources/

Hello Adventurers😊😊, WOW! Those deep and super slot canyons were AMAZING to watch! So Capitol Reef is next huh? Looking forward to that.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Stay tuned for a new video in a few hours! Excited to share Capitol Reef!

[@jatraveler1277]

Waterfalls were superb, I've camped close by. Kiva coffee is stunning glad you stopped there, not only is coffee great but the setting. 👍🥰 I also follow Catherine Gregory on KZbin. She is in Escalante also. Love both of your views of AMAZING Utah. Thanks for sharing. Well done.

[@suzanneaydelotte801]

Those slot canyons were so cool and beautiful! That rock is so smooth and Mars looking! Glad you didn’t get stuck!😜 Thank you Josh for helping my two favorite adventurers! The burrito and tacos….🤤😋🤤😋

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Josh also said his mom is like "why do you go do these adventurous things? why can't you just go to a nice beach resort?" hahaha Glad we had him to help us!

[@suzanneaydelotte801]

I love your adventures! They allow me to see places I may never see in person❣️

I would L❤️VE too❣️

[@JohnandCaraRetiredTravellers]

WOW! Our minds are blown! It took us 50 mins to watch 30! Had to keep rewinding! “What did they just climb through?” Thank you for taking us somewhere I KNOW we will not be adventuring too!! Wow! You guys rock! Beautiful video!! Bravo guys! 😊~Cara

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Hahaha this comment made us laugh! 😂

[@SM-tw1jo]

That was exactly we did. We rewinded several spot as we want to learn their tactic to pass through the incredibly narrow canyon.

[@kathigee]

wo wo wo.. noooooo... i'm glad i watched this.. SO beautiful!! I cannot figure out how I could get rid of my claustrophobia to make it on my own. 😩. Maybe I could go PART way.. and then turn back quickly (and crying). I've done that before. o well.. I got to see the WHOLE thing thanks to you guys. Exhilarating!!

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

hahaha we are glad we could virtually squeeze through slot canyons with ya!

[@mailmouse007]

Thanks for posting this adventure! Was adding this area (and an extra day) to my plans across Southern Utah in August (my usual Autumn getaway), and this greatly helped my understanding of what I'm getting myself into lol Folks like Josh make our venturing even more of a pleasure; I always find people are friendlier, more talkative and, in general, happier out on the trails, as we are sharing the best of Life and getting the best out of Life. Keep on truckin', kids!

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Woo! Glad you’re going to explore this area! And it was great to run into Josh! We normally prefer to not see people on the trail, but we lucked out with him!

[@nathandm18]

That looked like a really fun hike.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Such a blast! Definitely got us out of our comfort zone a bit 🙌🏼

[@simplygrateful182]

I love, love, LOVE y'all's channel! I started watching just a few months ago and can't wait to see some of the places yall've been! You are so positive and fun and your videography skills are fantastic! Blessings to y'all in your travels!

Thank you!

[@kaparowitz7393]

Very fun video. Spooky slot canyon is so cool. I am from the area and it brings back great memories.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Ah nice! We assume you’ve done spooky before?

[@kaparowitz7393]

@@AdventuresofAplusK Yes, but it’s been quite a while. I had forgotten about the climb up just to get into it. By the way, it’s great to kick back and enjoy one of your fun videos to start the weekend. Love the scenery. Keep up the great work!

That was really fantastic, Showit to my Thai wife. She never has seen such wild formations. . Very well done, thanks.

[@bobculhane4746]

That slot canyon was something else. The colors and shapes were so cool. It was was like you both were moving through a huge thing of batter and somebody kept twisting the spoon and moving up and down. Was so enjoyable watching you both figure out each narrow turn as it was upon u 😉

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Hahaha that’s an awesome analogy!

[@forkintherode8236]

Great video you are living the dream. We can’t wait to do this one. Safe travels

We did this vacation years ago and experienced every bit of what you are experiencing. We did it in August it was sooo hot!

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Oooof yeah August would be brutal!

[@jakesonaplane_]

Probably the best videos ive ever seen of these hikes! Peek-a-boo is one of my favorites ever. You guys MUST go back and do overnight in Coyote Gulch. Go down Crack-In-The-Wall for one of the best views ever and hike up multiple waterfalls to camp under Jacob Hamblin Arch.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Thanks so much Jake! And we hope to come back another time and rent a more suitable vehicle so we can explore more! We have always wanted to see that arch 😍

[@WildernessExcursions]

It's great to see that you made it to those Dry Fork canyons. If you plan to do more of those type of canyoneering style canyons, here are a couple tips. Wear old clothes, do not wear a down jacket, and pick up some rubberized garden gloves at a dollar store. We also always make sure that we wear long sleeves and pants when in the canyons, and pack shorts and a cooler top for the hike out on warm days. Keep exploring.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Yeah the jacket was a bad choice, especially since it's brand new. I was a bit scared to rip it 😬 But thankfully it survived!

[@williamleopold507]

We love watching your videos , you can sure get into some tight scarey places !!!

[@wendysmith2743]

That waterfall was like you had stumbled into another world, stunning. Flippet no way, those canyon slots would totally freak me out, your poor mom musta been horrified. Thanks for another amazing video. Take care on the road.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

The waterfall was gorgeous! And the slot canyon alone didn’t scare my mom (as long as it wasn’t raining!), but once she sees that we had to climb up and rappel down, she may have delayed nervousness 😂

[@demus8757]

You are so lucky the Kiva Koffeehouse was open when you got there. When we did they were closed, it happened to be a Tuesday if I am not mistaking. We were so looking forward to have a great coffee with a view. But no, only the view, which was, as you also pointed out, amazing.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Oh no! So sorry y’all!

[@plink5057]

Hi Folks, Great show in Grand places: those who follow you might like to know a couple things of note: There is a path down to the upper Calf Creek falls (from the highway above the canyons) and they are very interesting (lots of green growth). Also in Lower Calf Creek canyon there are some awesome pictographs visible on the great wall on the other side of the canyon when you near the small granary in the side canyon (three helmeted warriors). As for Spooky...plan to lose a few buttons on your jacket and be willing to crouch down or crawl to get through...good travels!

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Oh wow the pictographs would be meet you see! Thanks for sharing those tips! And thanks for watching!

[@mikeday8470]

Really great episode.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Thank you so much Robert!

[@debrabalawajder2617]

Loved and loved this video adventure! Mainly because that is one of my favorite areas. Zion and Bryce are great but when we’re in that area (and Capitol Reef) it feels magical. Lower Calf Creek is one of my favorite hikes and the slot canyons ❤️❤️. However, we did not do peek a boo; we should get back there and do it. We did not feel comfortable with getting up into it and then to get back out. We were even younger then! But we’re more experienced now. 👍. And I’ve also enjoyed the coffee at the Kiva! Is that not a unique place! And I love your comment about the Burr Trail: driving down a giant red hallway; so appropriate! Can’t wait to see what you do at Capitol Reef. 👌

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Hi Debra! So happy you enjoyed this adventure and have gotten to experience some of it yourself! It's truly a special area and we loved it (and Capitol Reef) SO much! Can't wait to share what we did there....we crammed in a TON into a short amount of time and had a blast!

[@jimmorris7260]

We are so glad!

[@sonny1172]

Oh my goodness! I am going to dream about crawling through narrow spaces tonight after watching this, but I am so excited to do this someday! We drove through the Grand Staircase, but didn’t stop. I was awed by the beauty of it.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

That area was one of the best surprises in Utah! This hike is a blast!

[@OffRampAdventures]

I'm still amazed at how you go from mountains to flat plains in one state!

Wow, you are very brave! I think I would start screaming for rescue as soon as I felt claustrophobic. Beautiful area and video, thank you!!!

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Hahahaha 😂😂

[@susankim4745]

Peekaboo & spooky 👻was my bucketlist w my 12&9 yo kids this summer !! But after watching those very narrow drops....I crossed it out. Thank you!! Too claustrophobic for me!! Definitely not spooky. I can hear us crying stuck not able to move. Enjoyed your video and now I know we are not doing this😍 THANK you!!🥰

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

The climbing parts would be tough for kids without the help of an adult! Although the narrow spots are perfect for kids!

[@oliverjh1281]

Wow what an adventure ! Those narrows a little to scary for me though 🙈 👏👏👏👏

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Definitely pushed us a bit out of our comfort zone!

[@MrEluder]

I watched a lot of videos of peek-a-boo and spooky before a family trip in april. After hiking it myself and now seeing your video, I think your video was the best! You really caught the beauty and feel, though nothing compared to hiking it in person of course.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Wow, thanks so much! And we agree, it's something you just gotta experience for yourself!

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Definitely recommend 2 weeks to explore! In our 2 months here, we spent about 15 full days actually exploring (and not working) and we were able to see a lot!

This episode definitely got the heart rate up and nerves going. But super cool that you guys did it and we love being able to experience it through your lenses!

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Hahahah definitely not for everyone, but it was SO fun!

[@dmerth]

Thats an EPIC canyon hike. Great video! Worth doing more than once! Was there last year and LOVED it. Since your on the way to Capitol Reef... Consider hiking Ding and Dang Canyon about 3 hours away. It is within 1 mile of the trail head for Little Wild Horse Canyon. Ding and Dang is more adventurous than the more famous Little Wild Horse Canyon trail (in my opinion). On the way from Capitol Reel, stop in Hanksville, UT to eat at Dukes Slick Rock Grill for a great meal. Not sure if you do this, but when hiking canyons, consider bringing 1" nylon webbing (found on amazon). It is useful to have a strong hand line to assist getting down areas that are under 15 feet. Also good to lower backpacks. We used one at the entrance to Peek-A-Boo.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

We’d 100% do it again!

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

And thanks so much for the tips! Unfortunately we went to Capitol Reef a few weeks ago, but will definitely keep this in mind for the future!

[@bobyonker3100]

Wowee what amazing trails. My wife Karen and I were having burrito envy (we lived in NM for 15 years) but mostly me. Miss the green chili not found here in Portugal.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Adam looooves burritos! This one was super tasty!

[@bobyonker8642]

@@AdventuresofAplusK If you travel to Europe, you could experience withdrawal. When our friends visit from NM, we are requesting that they bring chili powders and some NM green chili seeds. Just about anything seems to grow here in Portugal.

Nice vlog! Hell’s backbone grill in Boulder is also a great place to eat. That rope on the down climb in Spooky must have been left by another person. It’s often not there. For others who may attempt this it’s a good idea to be prepared for the assistance of a rope to not be there. Stemming or chimneying can be effective without a rope.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

[@devinchandler3352]

My brothers and I did the whole entire Hole in the Rock road to the Hole in the Rock by Lake Powell in his Jeep about 12 years ago. It was fun, the road gets a little tougher the closer you get to the Hole in the Rock so better you only went to there in the van. I didn’t do the slot canyons but wish I had, I will have to try that if I go there again.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

We hear 4x4 is highly recommended for the last part! Would’ve been super cool to see the actual hole in the rock though! I cannot imagine 35ish more miles on that road 😳😳

[@devinchandler3352]

@@AdventuresofAplusK Yes, it would be rough without 4x4. I would definitely say that 4x4 is best as it gets pretty interesting.

The colors of the rocks behind the waterfall are amazing! Such a beautiful scene. Very nice camerawork and editing. The different angles, some slow motion, etc really did a nice job presenting the scene. Adam's breakfast burrito looked fantastic... I too consider myself a breakfast burrito connoisseur so we'll have to compare notes, lol. The Burr trail looked awesome! The drone footage is so helpful for telling the story! There;s no way I could have stopped... we'll have to drive the whole thing! Hole in the Rock overnight camp looked cool! And the slot canyon hike was killer, despite a couple wong turns. Thats what makes it an adventure! And Peek a boo was really neat as well! The arches in the slot were amazing! Katy would NOT like that hike.... gonna have to go solo I'm afraid! But it looks awesome to me!

Your Utah videos were a huge help in planning our Utah trip. Fantastic content. We hiked Lower Calf Creek Falls today (Sunday), and got to the trailhead at 8:00. There were only two other cars there and we had the falls to ourselves...for about 15 minutes. Then the crowds came roaring in and we must have passed 100 or more people on the trail on our hike back and the parking lot was jam packed. Utah has been the most amazing place I've ever visited in my life. Just EPIC at every turn.

Local here, it is esca-lan-tay like you were saying at first. 🙂 but Zion is pronounced like zi-in not zi-on even though that’s how it’s spelled.

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

Lots of confusing words in Utah! We are aware of Zion, but it’s hard to change a 30 year habit haha, so we dabbled in both pronunciations.

[@melissayates239]

That place looks beautiful and I’ve never heard of it! I feel the same way about crowds when hiking. It just doesn’t give you the same feeling when there’s a lot of people! When we went to Yosemite there were some mornings we were heading to trailheads at 5:00 am 😊

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

That’s the way to do it! 👏🏼

[@JimBobele]

Great footage. I love the way of your narration. And the video quality is on point! I spent one week in the Escalante area in 2019 on a road trip and I immediately fell in love with this outstanding landscape. I made Peek-a-boo and spooky slot canyon as well. Peek-a-boo was great but I was not sure if I could make it through the complete Spooky canyon without getting stuck. So I turned around at the drop-off with the rope. Additionaly I was on my own and couldn't risk to get injured or lost if something would have happened. I then tried Spooky from the other side and then I really got stuck due to some extra kilos on my hips ;-) So, I luckily had made the right decision to turn around. Puuh. If you ever have the chance to hike the bolder mail trail through Lower death hollow when you are in the region, just do it. That was my best experience there. It's a 2 time overnight hike and it's worth every minute. Not to mention Coyote Gulch a few more miles further down the hole-in-a-rock road. Safe travels. Regards from Germany Reiner

[@AdventuresofAplusK]

VERY smart of you to turn around if you didn’t feel confident! We are big believers in only doing what feels safe for you! And that hike sounds awesome! We’d love to backpack out in Utah sometime!
