Out there early, hoping to see a good bit of water, but no such luck. There were some clear puddles of water, but after going a mile or so in, I only found a couple deep enough to jump into, and they weren't so clean

. Nice in the canyon early morning, but as soon as the sun cleared the canyon walls, with the humidity in there as high as it is, not too comfortable :sweat:

so I ditched after that. Look forward to going back there when I know the water's higher (and not so ridiculously hot).

Difficulty: :sweat:

of 5 (because of all the scrambling and climbing)
