My friends and I backpacked to Reflection Canyon over Thanksgiving weekend and it was absolutely an adventure. If you want to be in a desolate and remote location, you've chosen the right trip. Be sure to arrive in a 4WD/high clearance vehicle because you'll be driving 50+ miles on a dirt road with some washed out sections. Listen to Kathleen and stick to the straight edge cliffs to your right because travelling away from the cliffs will get you stuck in a labyrinth of slot canyons. We learned the hard way when we went off path to take a shortcut. Although awesome, there is absolutely no way out of the maze of slot canyons. This is one of those once in a lifetime trips that was worth the experience.
