Trip report URL:
Comments: 14cfs on Baker Creek gauge, ~5 cfs in Black Canyon. Bolts that were blown out in 2023 were replaced. Brush is definitely less of an issue than it used to be. The fun slide has effectively vanished, buried under some ~10ft diameter boulders. Anchors are there for all the major drops. There are many smaller drops with somewhat difficult and slightly exposed down climbs and not a lot of great anchor options (though plenty of questionable ones, I guess).
