  1. With wins worth up to 9,000 credits, Grand Canyon is a slot machine that offers some breathtaking gambling action. Admittedly, the game is a bit confused on the design front – it doesn't know whether it is trying to be funny or serious.
  2. A slot canyon is a long, narrow, deep and tortuous channel or drainageway with sheer rock walls that are typically eroded into either sandstone or other sedimentary rock.A slot canyon has depth-to-width ratios that typically exceed 10:1 over most of its length and can approach 100:1.

The trailhead is 15 miles northwest of Peach Springs on old US 66. The directions from the town center are to drive west to between mileposts 100 and 101 and turn right along the Buck and Doe Road (Indian Reservation Route 1), which is paved for a few miles then good quality gravel. After 6 miles, the road passes under some powerlines then, just beyond a cattle grid, a narrower, unsignposted road branches off due north. This is a smooth dirt track, generally good for any vehicle, though not after wet weather, as demonstrated by deep, dried ruts at either side. The long straight road passes an airstrip on the right and forks just before a small, often dry reservoir, enclosed by a fence. The right fork, now very little used, passes a gate and crosses more big empty land (Plain Tank Flat) still without any sign of the great canyons ahead, though the terrain does start to become rockier about 2 miles from the edge of the plateau, at the rim of Hindu Canyon.
HikeCanyons Low clearance vehicles might have to be parked somewhere along the last mile or two before the rim, though the track does continue for another 12 miles - it descends into middle Hindu Canyon, follows it downstream for a way, climbs up the far side and ends at a viewpoint 3,400 feet above the Colorado River, opposite Separation Canyon. But the last few miles are for hikers only as one section of the road is completely washed away, and even the descent into Hindu is narrow, steep and rutted, so the best parking place is just by the rim.
