  Likely In-Season!
Youngs Canyon is a difficult canyon that involve routefinding, major bypasses, and climbing obstacles, including a 40 ft class 4-minus route at the very bottom. Another class 4 downclimb may be required where a landslide took out part of a bypass trail. At the bottom of Youngs is a gorgeous waterfall. This trip is part of Hayduke Trail Passage 3 and should only be undertaken by individuals with extreme amounts of outdoor experience. It is a very difficult route.
