Introduction
This canyon is partially a fork of another new canyon that we explored a few years ago called Dark Demon Canyon, and shares a common mouth down in the drainage wash - so the name is connected to the first one
Approach
Descent
The rappel hit a ledge near the bottom at 300' where you could get off rope, but there is another 30 feet of downclimbing. So we did it it was a 330' rap instead. But you have to have a 300' rope which is mandatory to get down.
