I am taking the family with adventuresome kids ages 9-13 on a road trip through Southern Utah and want to do a day hike 5-10 miles in a slot canyon. Any recommendations?
Remember kids and doing this next week, so need to avoid water.

The Fairyland Loop is Bryce is a great kids hike; lots of great hoodoos, but no slots.
Hidden Canyon in Zion is slotish and really cool. Still have vivid memories from a visit when I was 8.
