Anybody ever taken their syncro into the canyon?

To drive on the canyon bottom, a 4-wheel drive
vehicle, a Park Service permit and an authorized
Navajo guide are required. The fee is $15 an hour for
1 vehicle, $5 an hour for each additional vehicle with
a 5-vehicle limit per guide.

I did this in late 1986 in my Toyota 4x4 pickup. We
were n the canyon for 4 hours.
I'm not sure if they will let a VW syncro do it.
Besides 4x4 they also say high clearence is needed.
The drive in in & along the river bottom & is very
sandy & deep in places.

You might Call, write or email them to see what they
say.
