| no partners | | One of my favorite canyons! Unfortunately we were a bit late in the season, and the water wasn't really flowing. (still cold though!)
We made it out there around 9AM, saddled up and headed out. It was a perfect day, though! Sun, cool water, warm air! One word of caution, though, don't drop into the canyon until there's a ravine directly to the right of the road, we dropped in early, and ended up scrambling back out in a hurry!!!
We breezed through the rappels pretty quickly (just 2 of us, and I've done this canyon a couple times before) Unfortunately, my camera didn't survive this trip! I'll try to get a good description up for the main page, but for now, just make sure you bring enough webbing for 5 rappels (one of the anchors will require 20 feet of webbing... watch out!) the longest being around 80 feet. The first rappel can be down climbed... but it is mighty slippery. I actually seriously injured my ankle inbetween the first 2 rappels here my first time! MIGHTY slippery, especially when wet!!!  |
