Solo Trail Running Ding & Dang Slot Canyons | Canyoneering Adventure in Southern Utah

I kicked off the second day of my road trip with a solo trail run through Ding and Dang Slot Canyons in Southern Utah’s San Rafael Swell, a route known for its blend of trail running and technical canyoneering. The morning brought a mix of fast desert terrain, narrow sandstone slots, stemming over cold pools, and several down climbs using fixed ropes. This demanding adventure set the tone for the day and highlights why Ding and Dang are a must-visit for canyoneers, climbers, and outdoor enthusiasts. If you missed Day 1, check out my rappel into Goblin's Lair, and stay tuned for what’s next as I head deeper into Utah’s canyon country.
