Comments: Beautiful views and some cool petroglyphs! The big rappel is very nice and the anchors are great. The rest was straightforward. The pool after the big rappel is pretty full. We were able to scramble around but canyoneer got wet.

Comment: Great hike in flower meadows up to Longbow Arch. We spend a long time practicing techniques at the 2nd optional rappel. Toggles the big rappel to make the pull easier and avoid rope grooves. Great day out.

Comment: Did this today. 5 total rappels. R1 is very optional, webbing on a small tree on the right edge of the canyon after the saddle, before heading down into the canyon itself. R2 was the aforementioned possible to down climb, but we rappelled it. R3 was the largest - there are two separate spots along the rim on the left side as you walk out of the canyon. The far bolts gave the biggest drop and a great overhang. The rope was a bit hard to pull, we had to cross the bottom canyon to get a good angle, and still needed help from the top. Someone seems to have attempted to attach a courtesy rigging to it, but it isn’t close enough to the edge. If I had had enough time, I would have retired, but the webbing is in decent condition for now, just makes a harder pull. R4 and R5 are right next to one another at the end. R4 is short, down to the last ledge with bolts for R5. R5 has a nice overhang as well. Took 4 hours with a group of 6 with only one really experienced.

Comment: It's a solid canyon to bring friends and beginners. The temperature in Moab this weekend was perfect. All anchors and webbing looked good.
