Moonshine Wash slot canyon in the desert 30 miles south of Green River, Ut was a blast. Getting there on washed out dirt/sand roads with several steep inclines almost requires a 4x4 vehicle (which we had).  However it was the most difficult to maneuver once inside since there were several dry falls with 10-20 feet drops and numerous chokestones and obstacles. This canyon is only about 30 miles from the infamous Blue John canyon where Aron Ralston sawed off his arm when he got stuck. I could easily see this happening based on what we saw even in Moonshine wash. It was still a lot of fun and fairly photogenic, although I want to go back again in the early morning light.
