Easy approach followed by some cool rappels with awesome views. As you leave forest road 213 stay high and work you way down at the last minute. This will avoid serious bush waking. The rappel sequence is as follows: 90',190',70',170'. FYI the third rap is chains DCR not the red webbing. The exit is now hiking up Fish creek hill to the rest area at the top. I recommend having a shuttle vehicle to get back to the trailhead. The road between the lookout and T/H was super busy. Not a destination canyon, but a great one to get some practice.
