| no partners | | Made the loop with no navigational issues thanks to the route I downloaded on my GPS. The description is sufficient to complete the hike as there really isn't any way to get off track but having the route on the GPS made me less anxious about missing the intersection with the Dutchman trail on the way out of the creek bed.
We finished the loop in roughly 4 hours with some minor scrapes and bruises from the rock hopping/bushwacking. The water level and flow were really high with the recent rain which made the canyon more beautiful but also far more difficult to navigate. My 15 yr old was in heaven but my wife may never go off trail with me again.  To be fair, the rock hopping was far easier for my son and I that are both 6'4" - at 5'2" my wife had a harder time using the same route as us and ended up with a lot of water in her shoes.
Looking forward to doing this again at some point when there is less water. |
