SAHC - Group

It had been a while since I did a SAHC hike so since I had the time I went with them on Wednesday. We took the Palisades trail past Mud Springs and then bushwhacked up and then down into Palisades Canyon. It was a very brushy and extremely steep bushwhack.

From there we went and checked out a box down the canyon where the canyon segment starts. Then we rock hopped and log jumped and limboed up the canyon. This is in an old burn area and in some sections there is a lot of downfall which made travel a bit interesting.

I will look forward to visiting this section of the canyon again when the rains starts since it is pretty even though it's difficult to access and travel.
