Mankind's feeble climbing skills and inability to digest delicious tin cans are two ways in which evolution left humans inferior to goats. Channel an inner mountain goat with today's Groupon: for $49, you get a two-part guided rock-climbing or canyoneering adventure (a $129 value) from 12 Finger Outdoor Adventure in Orem, with available outdoor locations in Salt Lake City and Provo. Both the two-part-rock-climbing and two-part-canyoneering options have multiple dates available.

Since 2005, the intrepid adventure junkies at 12 Finger Adventure have provided rookie thrill-seekers with fundamental training and hands-on, outdoors experience. Vertical veterans and newbies alike can opt for exhilarating exploits in either rock climbing or canyoneering, which kick off with a three-hour instructional session at a variety of outdoor locations in and around Salt Lake City or at 12 Finger Adventure's indoor location in Orem. Rock climbers will spend the second half-day session mastering rope work and climbing technique while conquering the nearby Wasatch Mountain range and searching for lucrative pet-rock mines. Customers who select canyoneering will embark on their second half-day session with an audacious exploration of the Wasatch Range's canyons, gaining expertise in rappelling off cliff faces, utilizing the belay system, practicing safety protocol, and yodeling into natural echo chambers.
