| no partners | | I pestered Richard Webb enough about taking me back into Devil's Canyon that he finally did it. Poor guy! He and Andy Dilling put together this delightful group of enthusiasts and took us out to witness the majesty of this canyon.
We took 2 vehicles down the infamous rough road to get us to our starting point. We were hoping to do a loop hike but had to wait and see what the canyon conditions were.
We headed down another rough road and then dropped in to the faint path that would lead us to the canyon. Lots of mud in the beginning but most of the path was fine.
As we got closer to the Canyon we could hear the raging flow of water! We knew it would be a site to behold and we would not be disappointed. The waters were indeed raging from the week's rainfall. As much as I wanted to be able to get down into that rocky bed to see as many angles as I could, it was nice to see that much water in there!
Richard made a good call in going back the way we came in as we didn't know what to anticipate if we tried to do the loop and head back up through the canyon with that much water.
I was going to upload my route but my Route Scout froze 2.6 miles into the hike.
Great day, great company, great canyon! |
