The road had been completely decimated by the last rains. Very disappointing. There was no way down. Well, maybe one way down... but I needed to keep my glass and try to have the body stay a little straight. We opted for the longer route to Escalante and then up into the mountain behind.

Looks like you guys had a good time. Those slot canyons make for some interesting photo's. Just watch out for flash floods in the those things because you'd be screwed.
