Grand Canyon Piñon Salve

At Desert Hiking Company, we believe in the healing power of nature—not just on the trail, but in the medicine we carry. Our Grand Canyon Piñon Salve is made with wild-harvested piñon resin, juniper berries, and golden beeswax from local hives near Flagstaff. Born from the high desert, this all-purpose balm offers a soothing remedy for dry skin, sore muscles, cuts, scrapes, sunburns, and more. It’s handcrafted in small batches using time-honored methods and ingredients we trust.

This salve has accompanied our guides on hundreds of miles through the Grand Canyon and beyond, proving itself useful time and time again. Whether you’re deep in the wilderness or just need some nourishment after a long day, this salve brings the desert’s wisdom to your skin.

How it’s made:
We gently heat wild resin into olive oil over several hours, then strain and blend it with crushed juniper berries and beeswax. Every batch is handcrafted in small quantities to retain the strength and character of the land.

How to use it:
Apply a small amount to problem areas—whether that’s dry skin, bug bites, sore muscles, or sunburn. For natural protection from insects, rub a bit onto ankles, wrists, and the back of the neck.

Why it’s different:
Unlike many modern balms, our salve contains no synthetic ingredients, no fillers, and no fragrances—just what’s needed, nothing more. It carries the scent of piñon sap, desert wind, and wild places.

Our Grand Canyon Piñon Salve is more than just a balm—it’s a piece of the land, crafted with care, and meant to support your journey wherever it takes you. Whether you’re deep in the backcountry or simply need relief at home, this salve delivers comfort, healing, and connection to place.

Wildcrafted. Trail-tested. Canyon-born.
