If you’re looking for a water hike through a red sandstone slot canyon, then head to Professor Creek & Mary Jane Canyon. The trail follows a meandering creek through a scenic canyon whose walls gradually narrow before reaching a tumbling waterfall that marks an abrupt end to your hike.

Leave the parking lot and immediately drop into the creek bed. The trail isn’t marked or immediately obvious, but once you’re across the creek it’s easy to pick up and navigate. You’ll spend a good portion of the hike walking through the creek, but there are a few sections of trail that bisect some of the wider bends in the canyon.

You’ll see a few small side canyons as you make your way towards the waterfall, but you’ll need a rope and technical equipment if you want to explore deeper. Once you reach the waterfall you’ll be forced to turn back and hike out the way you came. Hiking Professor Creek and Mary Jane Canyon is definitely best done on a warm day!
