Comment: We went down Little Blue, continued down to Lower Blue then returned back and ascended out Middle Blue. What a day!! Little Blue was very short, 2x50’ drops pretty sculpting, over quick… hike down to Lower Blue took an hour of mostly bland wash walking to reach. Lower is also very short and holding water. I was able to stem over all of the water. The dark section in Lower is very neat! Reached the patio and final rap then turned around and went back. Im glad I saw lower but I wouldnt bother making the trek again as it is a very short section of slot. After another hour hike back we reached Middle Fork and started up. Holy Cow Middle was stunning!! Super high walls, very grandiose! The shadows and sculpting were beautiful down below. Water was avoidable. Chimmneying up the various drops was definitely challenging but fun! I had to top rope one of my partners up a climb. It can turn exhausting quick! These 5th class chimneys are not for beginners! We had a blast and I think we all enjoyed Middle the most! It was also much longer than the other two. It took us 1.5hrs to ascend up and out of Middle. The hike back out was long, sand, and uneventful. Total time 7.5hrs

Comment: Exited up Main Fork from East Fork. One member tired and requested a self-belay up the climbs. Exited in the dark.
