Deep Chasm Canyon, Death Valley National Park

Deep Chasm Canyon is one of the premier technical canyons in Death Valley's Fall Canyon range in the Grapevine Mountains. The canyon's namesake feature — a dramatic chasm-like quality to its corridor walls — makes it immediately distinct from its neighbors. The main drop is over 200ft into this dramatic setting.

Deep Chasm ranks just behind Crater of Doom in the Fall Canyon range priority list — both canyons can be combined in a full technical day from the Fall Canyon trailhead. Refer to ropewiki.com for current beta and rope lengths before attempting.
