How to visitFree BLM; ~5-mi round-trip across slickrock (high-clearance road in)
A short but exquisite slot off the Hole-in-the-Rock Road, named for the candy-striped pink-and-white sandstone banding that ripples down its narrow walls. Often holds cold water in the narrows — wade in for the best light.

Plan around it
Access, fees, permits, and tour availability change with the season and the managing agency (tribal park, state park, BLM, or NPS) — confirm current rules and reservations before you go, tread lightly on sacred and fragile sites, and pack out everything you bring.
