Introduction[edit]

Approach[edit]

The approach starts a few hundred meters before the weather station at the top of the road. There is a large trail with a posted tourist hiking sign across from the station - that is NOT the entrance. The entrance is back 150 meters or so down the road you came up on. As you walk down the road it will be on your left. Follow the trail to the canyon. It becomes steep and there will be a series of landlines to assist the descent.

Descent[edit]

There are 7 rappels. The canyon ends at a dam with a bridge. If you wish to rappel this there is an anchor off a tree dcl. You can easily walk back up to the bridge on the right, and pull your rope back up from the top.

Exit[edit]

Follow the obvious trail at the dam back to your shuttle car.
