Canyoneering in Chamisa Canyon – Guided by Chris and John
The trip was amazing. It was a unique experience to “swim” through the wet canyons. We enjoyed the rock scrambling and rappelling as well. Our guides were very helpful and did a tandem rappel with our 8 year old son who was a little nervous to make the last 80 foot drop on his own. We had a great time!
