Introduction
From Coyote Wash many casual hikers walk from the mouth of the canyon to the bottom of the technical section. The technical section involves high-stemming to 30 feet above the deck and several tricky silo crossings.
Approach
Descent
- Warning** The final section of this canyon can hold a significant amount of water requiring long swims after recent rainfall! It's a good idea to hike up from the bottom to check before you start your descent.
