The day after canyoneering Primo Canyon Belinda had another rappel opportunity in Canyon Sem Alma. Access was from the Turkey Creek upstream from the trailhead. First we had to hike up a ridgeline to the top of the canyon before heading down canyon. Pretty quickly the canyon got narrow and we encountered some interesting downclimbs with webbing assist. The creek started to flow and we had fun stemming to avoid some of the pools.

Eventually we made it to the rappel which only turned out to be one but it was a fun free hang rappel. After that there was some more stemming and avoiding water which none did a very good job doing except for Belinda

It was slow going throughout the canyon but nobody minded taking time to enjoy what the canyon had to offer. We made it back to the vehicle wet and cold as it started to rain but a fun challenging canyon for sure!
