Comment: A few shallow but avoidable pools. Didn’t need to break out the rope. Lots of sand along the walls from recent rains which made downclimbing just a bit trickier. The more challenging exit was fun, traversing the slab was definitely exposed but looks worse than it is. Really pretty canyon in the morning light.

Comment: Pretty canyon and was fun to take a total beginner down! Bunny was scared (and limbless) so we had to provide a top-belay (pictured) and a lot of help on downclimbs. The challenging exit wasn't too bad until ledge traverse which was exposed and sloping and a difficult spot to set up a handline. We decided not to do so and had to stem back down and take the easy exit.

Comment: Fun route right of the highway. Good spot to practice some stemming. The remnants of the car are pretty neat. Bonus points for the engine block anchor. We stuck the rope on the last rappel but the rap is such that it can be stemmed back up without much trouble. There were a couple of other tails hanging from previous parties that chose to cut rather than retrieve them.


Great
