Peek-a-Boo & Spooky Gulch
Escalante’s twin no-permit slot canyons
A pair of tight, sculpted slots off the Hole-in-the-Rock Road in Grand Staircase-Escalante — Peek-a-Boo a corkscrew of arches, Spooky a shoulder-squeezing crack barely wide enough to pass. No permit, just a rough road and a sense of adventure.
