Comments: 5.5hrs RT with a shuttle, casual pace and taking lots of pictures. Slower (less experienced creekers) or larger groups would likely take significantly longer than the originally posted 4.5hrs. Did not encounter major bushwhacking at the top of the exit after finding the trail about 1/4 of the way up. Creeking/bouldering section was longer than anticipated and WAS a bit annoying/tedious and, with the strenuous exit, made the otherwise nice day a bit less pleasant.

Comment: Great canyon. Middle boulder hop section isnt too annoying. Definitely worth doing for first and last third which have great raps. Exit is rather atrocious, straight up muddy loose terrain and then shwacking through very dense vines and things for 20 meters, which took us a while without a machete. The thick vines section is just 20 meters long but slowed us 20 minutes.

Comment: Nice clean canyon with multiple jumps. The middle section of downclimbing started to get monotonous after awhile, but then the canyon finishes with some great rappels at the end. Descended as part of the 2024 Bonao rendezvous. A second group from the rendezvous descended at the same time as us, coming in a separate entry drainage, but they said that the drainage we descended (indicated in the .kml) was the better one, having done it a couple days before.
