What to Bring

Water / Sports Drinks
For your hike into the canyon, pack an ample supply of water -- we suggest 1 gallon of water.

Snacks / Food
Bring your favorites. Area restaurants can prepare sack lunches upon request. Common snacks include fruit, trail mix, snack bars and nuts.

Sunblock / Insect Repellant
Most people find it necessary to get the highest rated sunblock they can find, then re-apply the lotion at least once for overall protection.

Other Supplies
To avoid sunburn, a brimmed hat is recommended. Sunglasses can help minimize the glare off the canyon sands. During the summer, we recommend a cooling towel, and a warm hat for winter/cooler temps. During the monsoon, water may be flowing in the canyon. We do not recommend crossing flowing stream beds barefoot in the event there are rocks or debris below the surface of the water.

Binoculars
General purpose binoculars from small 6x30's to 12x50's will enlighten your canyon experience by zooming in on the details on distant walls and ruins. Small roof prism binoculars are available from Walmart at reasonable prices. 8x30 or 7x35 are good general purpose instruments.

Camera
Digital cameras require mega-pixel imaging to produce photographs with adequate detail. A zoom lens can help.

Light Jacket
Inquire with your guide based on current conditions. A raincoat is recommended during the monsoon. We suggest dressing in layers and packing extra socks.

Cash
You will have the opportunity to purchase jewelry, rugs, and crafts from Diné artisans in the canyon.

Leave No Trace Policy
At Canyon de Chelly Tours we practice Leave No Trace. Pack a plastic bag(s) and/or zip lock bag(s) for your items to be disposed of at the conclusion of your tour.

Restroom facilities
Restroom facilities are available at Ledge Ruins, Antelope House Ruins, and White House Ruins only. Please pack toilet paper/napkins in case supplies are low and hand sanitizing wipes as there are no handwashing stations.
