While there are hundreds of stunning slot canyons in our region, most of them are difficult to reach and many require technical skills to explore them. Two of the best, however — tops on my list for being visually stimulating — are pretty easy to access.

The area’s one big drawback is its low elevation and lack of shade, meaning that daytime temperatures become unpleasant by late spring.
