Rainbow Canyon is a 3AI canyon with vibrant color streaks running through its walls — a fitting name for a canyon that delivers a spectrum of desert hues. The technical rating makes it accessible for newer canyoneers while still offering beautiful scenery and engaging rappels.

The narrows section is particularly scenic with color-banded walls that showcase the layered geology of the Southwest desert. A recommended canyon for anyone looking to experience technical canyoneering in a stunning setting without an overwhelming commitment level.
