After our wilderness guide introduced himself and his assistant, we began to "don" rappelling gear, seat harness and clip carabineers to our dry pack. Finally we were issued a canyon shoe that in the end did us wonders, incredible that rubber can stick so well in either wet or dry polished rock conditions.


Thanks for best time ever

Tired of the same old visits to the parks... Set up camp, lock your food in the Bear locker, do a bit of swimming, maybe go for a day hike. Then that night wonder off to the Interpretative talk and learn about the Latin name for the six kinds of Blue Jays in the area.

Join us for fun, climbing, swimming, exploring canyons of the kings area. Learn climbing skills, develop confidence, take a wild plunge into that deep cool pool, learn to tie your own ropes, create anchors and then rappel crags, crevices and waterfalls.                     

Located deep in the Kings Canyon National Park and Sequoia National forest, Kings Canyon is truly one of the undiscovered parks and forest in the country. Kings Canyon is the deepest canyon in the country at just over 8000 feet deep with hundreds of smaller canyons flowing into the mighty canyon creating hundreds of wild and scenic rivers all flowing into the kings river and eventually out to California central valley.
Kings Canyon is located 77 miles East of Fresno CA, on highway 180. 5 hours north of southern California and approximately 4 hours South east of the San Francisco bay area. We are just south of Yosemite National Park.

The Canyonnering season is water level based, typically we start late June and go through to mid November.
