Medieval Chamber
Moab, Utah
Technical Canyoneering

          Medieval Chamber is a fun and easily accessible technical canyoneering adventure. The route contains a rappel into a short, interesting slot and a spectacular, free air rappel from the top of a famous arch.

          In normal conditions the route is dry. The pictures on this page were taken during a massive thunderstorm while the canyon was experiencing a flashflood. This added obstacle really added to the pucker factor but also produced some fun pictures. This route is accessible year round, during all weather conditions.
