Rattlesnake Gulch in southern Utah is one of those iconic, right of passage trails that should be on everyone's shortlist.

It's a short drive from Hurricane, and the trail has flowing mountain water all year long. In the summertime, the small swim holes and at the end offer wonderful places to relax. The boulders are numerous, big, and wet. There are vertical rock ledges to drop down and soft sand to climb up as you zigzag through a 200-foot deep desert canyon.

Come prepared for a wonderfully unique rock crawling experience.
