Typically found in arid regions, these canyons are characterized by their smooth, often vertical walls. Arizona, with its dry climate and soft sandstone composition, is home to a number of the most famous slot canyons. These geological formations are formed over millions of years as small cracks in the rock expand into larger fissures through ongoing erosion by water flows. The play of light in these canyons, particularly at sunrise or sunset, offers dramatic photographic opportunities and a deeply immersive nature experience, making them popular destinations for hikers and photographers alike. ***
