Labyrinth Canyon is accessed by boat near the SW end of Lake Powell. The water slot eventually narrows to the point where the boat has to be tied / anchored / beached, then it's a 50m swim through the slot to dry canyon floor (ref. WL 3635 ft.). There are three major slots to explore in Labyrinth, all worth the investment of a few hours' time.

I've been reading Larry's Party by Carol Shields, and the central image of mazes and labyrinths has been resonating with me.
Every culture on earth, from Aborigines to Native Americans to ancient Greeks uses the symbol of the labyrinth for some kind of spiritual journey - it was hugely popular in Medieval Europe as a symbol of the journey from birth to god.
But at the moment, this is what depression feels like, this endless trip, spiralling in on myself, retreading the same ground, the same arguments, the same circular thoughts whirring round and round, endlessly, recursively. Is it a journey in, or a journey out?
We saw "Labyrinth" on the map and got excited...until we found out that it was a stone "meditation" labyrinth. Boring! And the sign explaining it was facing the wrong direction and hidden under a willow tree!!!

In Greek mythology, the Labyrinth was an elaborate structure designed and built by the legendary artificer Daedalus for King Minos of Crete at Knossos. Its function was to hold the Minotaur, a mythical creature that was half man and half bull and was eventually killed by the Athenian hero Theseus. Daedalus had made the Labyrinth so cunningly that he himself could barely escape it after he built it. Theseus was aided by Ariadne, who provided him with a skein of thread, literally the "clew", or "clue", so he could find his way out again.
In colloquial English, labyrinth is generally synonymous with maze, but many contemporary scholars observe a distinction between the two: maze refers to a complex branching (multicursal) puzzle with choices of path and direction; while a single-path (unicursal) labyrinth has only a single, non-branching path, which leads to the center. A labyrinth in this sense has an unambiguous route to the center and back and is not designed to be difficult to navigate.
Many labyrinths set in floors or on the ground are large enough that the path to the center and back can be walked. They have historically been used both in group ritual and for private meditation. In recent years, there has been a resurgence of interest in the labyrinth symbol, which has inspired a revival in labyrinth building. Labyrinths are used by modern mystics to help achieve a contemplative state. Walking among the turnings, one loses track of direction and of the outside world, and thus quiets the mind. The Labyrinth Society provides a locator for modern labyrinths all over the world.

This quilt is in "Quilt" Magazine this month. I made the pattern work after my friends tried and tried. They did all the other work on it, and got it into the magazine, but it feels really wonderful to be "Published."

unwind your ball of twine, construct your waxen wings, take one step and then another, wending the ancient path that many have taken before you.
beware the minotaur, beware the goblin king!

The Labyrinth is a revised 7-fold design that is unique to the Farm, with 4’ wide paths leading into a center circle that is 20’ in diameter. The entire Labyrinth is 84’ across and 5,540 square feet in area. It is currently constructed out of grass paths, and will be created out of stone curbing to delineate the paths, which will remain in grass.
The Labyrinth is a useful place for personal meditation, celebration and group ritual. It is available for individual walks whenever not in use by a ritual group or being maintained. Solar lights allow for nighttime walks as well
multidimensional, weaving together the physical, emotional, and spiritual.
As a mandala, the spiraling image of the labyrinth is quite compelling and draws people to it.
Based on the circle and spiral, the labyrinth is an ancient and powerful symbol of wholeness and a tool for transformation.
To create earth labyrinths as sacred landscapes for environmental awareness,
healing, reverence, and caring for the earth.
To nurture creative imagination intuition, beauty, wholeness, connection, and
.healing
magical maze - take a few deep breaths, invoke your deity of choice, empty your mind and start walking.
