Entrance to Slot #3 (view S from main wash) |
Overview
Deep within Death Valley Wilderness Area, Sidewinder Canyon is a moderately strenuous hike up a steep gravel wash to several amazing narrow slot canyons that cut into the walls of the main canyon.
Presented here are photos of Slot Plus Three (Slot #3). Slot #3 is the sixth of the side canyons encountered while hiking up the main wash, and this slot is the third of the interesting slot canyons. The entrance to Slot #3 is located in the wall of narrows in the main wash. This slot is deep, narrow, and fairly dark, so be sure to bring a flashlight.
