4Hiking Supplies

the narrows

You will need a pair of waterproof hiking boots or canyoneering boots with good ankle support. You should be able to drain the water out of them quickly. Neoprene socks are more comfortable in the water.

  • Trekking poles or a hiking stick will help you hike on the uneven, wet terrain.  
  • Bring a jacket as an extra layer. The water and high canyon walls create slightly cooler conditions.  
  • Take sunscreen. Even if you start as early as possible, you will eventually be hiking in the sun. Pack it with your First Aid Kit. Pack it all in a waterproof bag.
  • You will also need at least one gallon of water per hiker each day and appropriate snacks. (Don’t forget camping supplies if you spend the night.)
