Upper Three Fingers is a great little canyon, in an easy to access, yet remote feeling part of the Swell.It's short nature make it a good beginner canyon. Although it does have keeper potholes, beginners with teamwork should be able to overcome them. The views where the canyon drops behind the reef are second to none.

Couple this one with Upper Greasewood or Hyde Draw (or both) to fill out a weekend.
