Such a sweet canyon and you hit those first narrows fairly soon from the highway with a couple down climbs and two cool rappels into some muddy pools... This canyon is super scenic as it slowly drops to the Colorado River. Some bypasses around drops and then one more mandatory short rappel before you hear the roar of the Badger Creek rapids. 
It was cool to grab a snack alongside it and watch rafters getting thrown around in them. Hmm, think a packraft could handle that? 
We eventually reach the break in the clifband above us and then once up on it we traverse back to the exit canyon. It was nice to be back up on the flat rim and walking back to our car with the sweet views of the surrounding Vermillion cliffs. Such a sweet canyon and def worth sticking around 6 hours for.
