A great hike with lots of different landscapes to see. There are two areas with slot canyons, which have varying levels of access depending on the rubble (and your bravery) in the narrow spots.

The hike is totally exposed with full sun, so it's much nicer with cool temps and a breeze. The road on the valley floor can be very sandy and there were a lot of trucks/jeeps driving through, but generally there's hard packed dirt available alongside the road.

The parking area alongside the S2 is a decent size to fit several cars. It's also easy to access without danger of low cars getting stuck.
