Alzheimers must be setting in.
I incorrectly remembered the last rap as 150ft.
Also important for near future canyoneers:
we discovered a rotting deer carcass about two pools before the last rap.
I managed to manuever it out of the flow of water to the side using a small log.
I would wait at least a few good rains to flush out the rest.
We managed to get past the following pools by careful climbing and two tyrolean traverses, only getting wet to the waist. You really don't want to get your face in that Venison Soup!
So, the last rap has my ropes.
We had descended the purple line, planning to pull the green and yellow ropes but came up short. I tried to prussik back up the purple line but with the rope being wet and very spongey it just wasn't happening any time soon. It's not a high value rope,
I'd retired it from climbing and was using it as a dedicated rap line.
If anyone finds these ropes I would be happy to send you $20 for your trouble plus postage to return it to me.
thanks, be safe!
