[ show ]
| partners | | got a last minute invite to do the five pools loop with bruce, linda and wally
was in this area ten years ago, climbing with fletch in hackberry canyon
after a bumpy ride in bruce's subi x-mode, we parked at the top of the gnarly hairpin and set off around 0815
half mile road walk to hackberry canyon
no water flowing today
this was in 2015: [ photo ]
about a 30 foot downclimb into devil's canyon
no poison ivy today, but plenty of catclaw and other bushwhacking
some scrambling and a couple of bypass climbs to avoid water in the creek
slow going and had to watch our footing
we made our way to the first pool and took a few photos
good rope and newer bolts descending to the next pool
we opted not to try it
found the rough trail heading up to the road
saw a jet flying down devil's canyon
checked out a rock wall and had lunch along the trail
returned on forest road 315 which is also rough and rocky in places
beautiful day, great destination, good company
thanks for including me  |
